It is only a long lived singer-songwriter career that lets James Lee Stanley unite the unpredictable creative turns and the eclectic elements that make up his world. His remarkable ability as a vocalist and composer allow him to create songs, each recorded with a finely crafted with guitar orchestrations that enhance the lyric. But a whole new dimension is added when James Lee performs live. These incredible songs, coupled with his outrageously hilarious repartee, make for an evening of hilarity and tenderness and one of the most entertaining concerts on the circuit.
The career of James Lee Stanley is basically a list of highlights. His 1998 album Freelance Human Being is described by FI Magazine as one of the top 200 recordings of all time. He has toured with Bonnie Raitt, Robin Williams, and Nicolette Larson (to name a few) and comedian Steven Wright chose James to be his opening act on a national tour three years in a row. He has released CDs with Michael Smith, Peter Tork (The Monkees), John Batdorf, Cliff Eberhardt and Dan Navarro. His acoustic recordings of rock classics (All Wood and Stones; All Wood and Doors; All Wood and Led) are revolutionary. He recently recorded the soundtrack to a book. And he appeared in 13 episodes of Star Trek: Deep Space 9 (usually as a Bajoran, but once as a Vulcan.)
The accolades for James Lee Stanley are many, and come from diverse sources. Village Voice says "It is simple, really. With James Lee you get great songs, great guitar playing, great voice and a gifted comedian as well. You are in for a very entertaining evening." From Brigham Young University comes This is only the second time there has been enough enthusiasm for an act to have a return engagement within the same year. And "So where have they been hiding James Lee Stanley? We could say that James Lee Stanley is probably the last great undiscovered singer-songwriter in America. But true as that may be let's say something else, let's say that a diamond has been smuggled into the wastelandand here is where the wasteland ends" comes from Tom Robbins, Author of Even Cowgirls Get the Blues.
