User:MaryAnette/Shayfer James

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shayfer James is a self-titled singer/ songwriter project. Shayfer James' recent performances have been in New York, New Orleans, and Hong Kong. "When Shayfer James approaches the piano, there is a certain power and mischievous charm that surrounds him. A bewitching sense of foreboding builds as his fingers touch the piano, and as he begins to sing, we are immersed in his darkly lyrical and evocative stories. His wry poetry is stitched seamlessly to peculiar arrangements that are simultaneously unsettling and familiar. Mr. James lures us into a devious world where the gods tear wings from angels and every man has a siren waiting to devour him."[1][2]

Current members of Shayfer James include Dusty Bones (drums, percussion), Jeremy Gillespie (bass, vocals), Dante Portella (organ), with occasional appearances by Sarah Zar (musical saw, backing vocals) and Peter Horn (violin). The band has released two albums: The Red Room and The Owl & The Elephant.
