Welcome. My name is Shawn Henderson - host/producer/editor of the new television show - "Stay Tuned". As you can see, the show is a video representation of my actual radio show, which coincidentally also happens to be called "Stay Tuned".
If you are interested in hearing the actual radio show, it can be heard every Friday afternoon from 1:30pm to 5:00pm (EST) on WSCA 106.1 FM in Portsmouth, NH or streamed at wscafm.org
The goal of the radio show, and now the television show, is to bring awareness to the working and traveling musician. I've interviewed hundreds of fantastic musicians over the years and recently I started filming the in studio performance with the intention of creating this television show. Well, the day is finally here (after many false starts . . . of my own creation mostly).
This episode features the incredible talent of Austin based songwriter, James McMurtry.
I hope you enjoy it. I've been a huge fan of James' work since I first heard his debut album years ago. In my mind he is one of the best songwriters on the planet today. And I say that without any doubt whatsoever. His songs have an emotional impact unlike that of most other songwriters. His characters are well thought out and more often than not are presented in an "unpolished" way. Just like you, me and everyone we know - what you see on the surface of someone's character is not always what exists below, and James has a way of going deep and showing us the person that sometimes we don't even want to admit exists.
And please do not hesitate to leave feedback or comment on the show or the band.
Quick links to all the songs are below. All songs performed live in the studio.

Anyone who plays guitar knows how amazing this man is after seeing this.
saw him live in boise, a true legend, more prolific than bob dylan, a master musician
It's fascinating to hear how McMurtry puts his songs together. What a great talented songwriter.
Amazing talent, great, honest songwriter and performer. Thank you
James has a fantastic body of work
This is a class song, and I can listen to him all day
Great stuff indeed
J. McM. is a genius! thanks for this vid.
Glad to find yr show Shawn - especially as I am a newish fan of James McM. Am based in U.K. So sick to find I missed him playing over here recently and in reach too. So thanks for filling me in via yr session on his music, songs albums etc..I can take it from there. My first time here so looking forward to hearing of others you rate.
James can inhabit the "unpolished" like no other. Choctaw Bingo @ 20:40!
Aught Three is fricking awesome
Live in Europe is also great great great
Interesting to hear James talk about his songs, his writing and his take on music business. And he's got the same ring on his phone that wakes me up every day
Superb playing on his own too ...
Delaware is lyrical and brilliant
Choctaw is great fun and full of clever lines and Roscoe ....
Ruby and Carlos is an absolute classic - such economy of language but a brilliant evocation of painful choices and yearning, and with a lyrical poetry, few can match in any genre. Depth, power and you can't hold back that flood.
His writing in unbelievably good and the Just Us Kids album is pretty damn fantastic.
Hurricane Party is even better - looking for his grey striped cat. Goddamn he's a great artist and I'm thankful he's recording
Great show
Subscribed !
Thanks for the video. Love you JM! Hope to see you again soon....
J Mc with his hat off. Now THAT is a rare thing!
So talented!
Thanks so much, James, for bringing that 12-string into the studio. Reminds me of nights watching Fred Neil ...
Ah, Fred. Such a great writer and player. Really miss him.
James McMurtry you're so great i really admire your guitar playing and of course your lyrics thinking about American University Washington DC peace to you and yours thank you james
The guy is the real deal.

American Shakespeare
Thank you yelloms! I'm glad you like it. James was a blast to have in the studio.
Love the 12-string!
We recorded that on April 27, 2012
Shawn! There's a dude up here in Ellsworth, ME that you should get on the show! He's fantastic. His name is Chris Ross :)
HA! You're kidding, right??
Steven King's work should've benefitted from the opportunity of quoting McMurtry!
McMurtry is genius... as are most TEXAS singer/songwriters. The rest of the non-Texas musicians try to emulate them and move to Austin to try and get the vibe, but nothing seems to suffice for being a Texan... true literary artists. Nashville is for the vapid hayseeds that want to suck up to the hokey morons who trot across the grand ol' opry stage.
As always, all roads lead to Texas.

Fuck yea bro....I hear you.. if only pop culture caught up
What year was this recorded?
Hi Dennis - have Chris email me and we'll see if we can get him on. Thanks for the suggestion. I look forward to learning more about him.

He must be sick of playing Choctaw Bingo in this kind of setting.
I picked choctaw bingo on a juke box in a small crowd of hipsters. Their response was saracastic at at best. Fuck them lol
Ya, you can see that with most artists, but he, like most professional musicians seem to find the strength they need to get their music out there because deep down that’s why they do what they do. If I wrote Choctaw bingo I would sing it every day, every where because I would want people to hear it.
