Brendan James updated his MySpace friends on Friday (January 2) with the following bulletin:

2008 was a whirlwind and I’m still in disbelief that its over since it went so fast but I think its going to be an amazing year.

It’s hard to think 2009 could top 2008 but with London around the corner and the Mayercraft and all of the new music I’ve been in the studio recording, it’s hard not think this year will top the last.

I’m really just anxious to get the new music to you to hear what you think?

I want to thank each and everyone of you again for being a part of this experience with me, I’m looking forward to catching up with you through here, facebook, myspace, and our team page before I go off to London, I owe lots of you letters and thank you’s so please be patient with me, I’m workin on em one by one!!

As always, love to hear all of your great ideas on where to play, fun places to visit, and more, you’ve all been a huge inspiration to me.
Here’s to a great 2009 together!!!

Peace and Love,

B

Yeeeehaww, 2 and a half days in Kentucky, and I’m a changed man. Been watchin rodeo, drinkn 4 roses, hangin out with a bunch a cardinals. Highlights of the week so far have been partyn into the night after the show at Pheonix Hill Tavrn, forgetting my piano at the venue (that’s a first), chillin at the Hyatt (who have been so very accomodating) and of course finding two more great vintage stores to sift thru with my band. (Who r all convinced they should have been born in the early sixties).
We’re about to hit some Louisville distilleries, then hit the road to Alabama.
Buttercups bein a trooper

Brendan James updated fans on his blog at MySpace on Wednesday (October 8). The New York City based singer songwriter tells readers:

I had to tell you, Its been fun rocking my ‘rock the vote’ t-shirt the last few days.. thanks to the ‘rock the vote’ people for driving their big ass bus to meet up with me in Columbus.. I’ve always believed in voting, especially for this election. I think young people are going to play such a huge role in the future of this country, so its an important one to say the least. – The last time I did Rock the Vote I was in Texas and every time I was trying to film my commercial someone interrupted with a loud sound check, I thought I was being punk’d I’ll see if I can upload the video to here, but you can see it if you youtube Brendan James, rock the vote. Worth a good laugh!!

Brendan James’ latest video clip features the singer songwriter and his band checking in while driving into Alabama in their tour van. “When I started off touring with Chris, months ago, I could handle him, I could tolerate him,” Brendan said while sitting behind his keyboard. “Now, he’s driving me a little crazy.” They then revealed the van’s name – Buttercup.

Brendan James checked in while on tour in Alabama, showing off their temporary tour transportation – a Dodge Ram. Enterprise Car Rentals gave them the truck while their van was being worked on. “We’re in a big pickup truck in Alabama, and I love this moment,” Brendan said.
