“There is a nimble symphonic whimsy at work in all of Hurley’s
highly-evolved compositions. If all four of The Beatles and George Martin were poured into a single guitar playing songwriter, I believe it would look and sound like James Hurley.”
A quote from recording artist Severin Browne
"James is a real joy to listen to and to watch. He very casually does some phenomenal things on guitar while singing his truly original and melodically courageous songs."

Wow, I love your guitar playing, how you can carry a song on its own with just guitar and your soft, soulful vocals, that's the measure of a real musician!
Being a Brit, I just had to listen to London Bridge, ha! Love One Man Woman too - some Chet Atkins in there!
All good wishes for greater things to come!

I'm absolutely loving London Bridge! That's gonna be my "Clear-the-hangover" song at uni! It sounds like Paul Simon, if he were a bit happier!

The fave for me is, "London Bridge, " and the tuba works brilliantly, however, "Take Me Away, " is also a lovely song with a slight Simon and Garfunkel feel to it in places. I do request that you put some more lyrics up though as some of the lyrics in, "Take Me Away, " are superb and I would really like to be able to read, "London Bridge, " as well as just listening.
All the best to you. Hope you come to England soon.

James Hurleys' TEMPEST IN A TEACUP is a GREAT album.
I listened to it straight through, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Good to hear music for adults for a change, lol!
Outstanding!
