Michael James and Michael James Band

I have started teaching and would love to get more clients and give back. I will teach any age but it really touches my heart to teach a little bit younger generation to get them on their way to hopefully a talent that becomes a dream come true. Don’t have to be a star as long as you enjoy it and it brings you joy.
I am a Session Guitar Player Song Writer. I started playing guitar when I was 6 years old in the Flamenco Guitar style ! Have done sessions at some ot the top studios. Hit City,Revolver , Sunset & PPWP studios! I have performed all over Europe for various named bands. I strive to give you the best music and instrumentation possible on every track! I love all styles including Hard Rock/
I have been doing sessions mostly guitar and sometimes vocals for 20 years. I am proficient in producing, comping vocal as well as instrumental tracks! I love what I do and put my heart and soul into every project I accept! I normally charge from $200 to $400 dollars a song unless you have a major budget from a label/publishing company then I charge the going scale rate !
Live Gigs vary. Could range from $250 to $400 hourly. It depends on the venue and other things that can be negotiated. Can do single artist acoustic, or 3 or 4 piece band if the money is right. Mostly Classic Rock, Blues , Pop and Country. Also some Latin style Music as a single artist.

I have also done score for a couple of Sit Com's with my partner T. Johnson. Punkey Brewester, Boys will be Boys & Little Monsters!
Recently signed a publishing deal for 10 songs for Sync/License. I have a disco account for music for film,tv or commercials. I can provide a link for Music Supervisors who may be looking for various types of Music.
