jim james played a pretty fetching (mostly) solo acoustic set at the newport folk festival last weekend - he was joined, for a song or three, by m. ward - and we have the audio for you below. james is one of our personal favorite vocalists & musicians and we're sure you won't be disappointed by this performance. (see the festival write-up at aquarium drunkard for confirmation of james's place in the weekend's pecking order.) also, be sure to have a listen to james's cover of gil scott-heron's "when you are who you are," which we rather quite enjoyed.

I was at this show! In my book, he was hands-down the highlight of the entire festival.
thanks for posting up the songs! That was an awesome highlight to my friday! I hear he is really good! Well since you posted these, i thought I'd let you know that there are some awesome artist up for free download at The Hotel Cafe There are six to choose from, or you can get all six free ringtones, seeing as they are free and all. Happy Friday everybody!
