Musical litterbug and artistic fidget, James Higgins writes acoustic rock spooky songs tinged with playful humor that often draw on his experiences as a street musician in Europe.
Bio / Background
Higgins' "A Drop in a Fall" has all his usual trademark mixture of humor, imagination, strange stories and the unexpected.
This CD definitely has deep acoustic roots but the branches are laden with all kinds of musical and lyrical fruits.
Higgins has the uncanny ability to take the listener into a small moment of time in a life and have a privileged look around.
People familiar with James Higgins describe him as a man with a walking imagination who leaves songs in his wake like a musical litterbug.
Higgins left his native Scotland at a tender age for a two week vacation carrying only a day pack, an old guitar, and a check from the unemployment office. He never went back, that was 20 years ago.
He spent that time on the road in continental Europe playing music on the streets, working in youth hostels, hotels and beer gardens. During this time he managed to keep his head above water, his fingers on the strings, and his pen to paper.
