For all the people calling, emailing and writing, thanks. It means so very much to us that you care, we really really thank you for your time and attention, both to our music and what we do. A few of you have written wondering when the web site would be updated and when we'll take to the stage again, again thanks for all the concern and good will. Here's the deal. After a few years of touring, recording and being with the Jan James machine things got very hot. We were busy on two continents and the personal, and private took a back seat. After a heavy tour schedule, with writing and recording tucked into any open space, the idea of a little time off sounded pretty, pretty,pretty, pretty good, so we took some, and now we're at it again. We're writing and recording our next CD...It's going to have plenty of what you love us for and quite a few surprises. We're being in some new personnel from Europe and the states to add to the pot. We have a new fire to create and a sense that it is time! So again thanks for hanging with us we'll see you all soon. Craig New Jan James T-shirts are in...get yours NOW! Click Here
