about

I remember walking into the Pour House in Raleigh, NC, and was at once enthralled by this beautiful voice coming from the stage. I thought surely she must be some great star. Some days later I returned and went to the bar and ordered a beer. The bartender that waited on me was that very singer that had before so touched my heart. This is a common story.

lyrics

She’s got a pretty voice,
She melts my heart of stone,
She takes me there,
Every time...

You know the kind,
A voice that damn near blew my mind,
I just assumed,
She’d go far...

(Chorus)
A few days later to my surprise I see her tending the bar.
I look in her eyes, I see the fire,
I hope and pray she’ll go far.
But for now, here’s another tip in the jar....

Time and time again,
She moves the crowd,
Causing them...
to feel...

I’m so numb with drink,
So much pain its hard to think,
She reaches through to my...
heart...

(Chorus)
But for now, here’s another tip in the jar...
But for now, here’s another tip in the jar...

about

James Olin Oden Raleigh, North Carolina

It's always been about what moves the heart. The songs I sing are compelling stories whose telling must be told over and over again. The stories range from dark acts that should not be forgotten to the silly revelries that we should never forsake. My hope is that as my heart is moved by the music so too may yours be moved.
