Influenced by writers such as Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan and Tom Waits, James Houlahan’s music is a vast net cast in a sea of musical possibility. Bringing to the surface sonic treasures from the depths of an old yet vital collective American spirit. An odyssey of exploration, bent on unlocking the transformative powers of music. One song at a time. 

Based in Los Angeles, Houlahan has been active on the local music scene since arriving from his native Boston in 2012. Having released two new albums over the past couple of years, he returns to touring with a slew of new songs. New desires for expression, humbled yet longing for the light of day and the open road. His set will feature songs from his critically acclaimed 2022 release Beyond the Borders.
