I stumbled across Joshua James a few weeks ago, looking for new music on iTunes, and got hooked on several of his songs. Interesting voice and arresting lyrics. Definitely new folk. Check out Crash This Train, Coal War, and Lovers Without Love.
"Now a note to the President, and the Government,
and the judges of this place.
We're still waitin for you to bring our troops home,
clean up that mess you made.
Cuz it smells of blood and money across the Iraqi land.
But its so easy here to blind us with your "United We Stand"
And it ain't hard to see that this Country ain't free.
So god if you can hear me crash this train
said god if you can hear me crash this train."
- Joshua James, "Crash This Train"
