In March, he released an EP of Folk/Americana songs called “The Canadian River.” The single of the same title placed #23 on the FolkDJ radio charts in April of 2018, and the song “Two Cageless Birds” went on to be selected for the John O’Hara Songwriting Performance Grant. In the winter of 2018, his single, “Cowtown Blues” reached the Roots Music Report Contemporary Folk chart Top 15.
Now, James Lee Baker is offering his most-dedicated fans a rare and exclusive opportunity to have a truly unique piece of music history. On March 2nd, 2019, James will enter Leesta Vall Sound Recordings studios in Brooklyn, NY, where he will cut one-of-a-kind, direct-to-vinyl master recordings of his most beloved songs.
