Saturday – The Bull Run presents James Maddock, The
best singer-songwriters serve the song. The songwriter’s songwriter, James Maddock,
who has earned the respect of masterful writers such as Bruce Springsteen and
Willie Nile, has built his acclaimed legacy on humbly honoring purity of
expression. Many albums in his beloved catalog are elegantly spare, conveying
his songs and sentiments in the most direct possible way. But for his latest
album, "The Green," the songs guided him into recording the most
eclectic, exhilaratingly soulful and imaginatively produced album in his
career. “This is my best album. It’s an upbeat record with really strong songs
and a lot of surprises,” the British transplant reveals. “It all happened
really naturally. I just listened to where the songs where going and allowed
myself the time to give each one a proper sonic home.” For tickets and more
