James’ third solo album, UNIFORM DISTORTION was greeted with worldwide critical praise upon its arrival earlier this year. JIM JAMES PRESENTS UNIFORM CLARITY: IN CONVERSATION & PERFORMANCE The broadcast will culminate with a very special live performance and Q+A session, set to be streamed live from San Francisco at 1am tonight. Today, there will be an exclusive YouTube event that sees James appearing throughout the day for special performances, discussions about the upcoming release and his extraordinary body of work, as well as his belief in importance of voting and political action as we set out to change the future this Election Day. UNIFORM CLARITY was recorded with GRAMMY® Award-winning producer/engineer Shawn Everett (Alabama Shakes, The War On Drugs). A crystal clear illustration of the flawed beauty of what a song starts off as or sometimes remains- a thought. a seed. a light from the womb of the universe brought to life down here on earth.” Working with Shawn Everett, we created a document style recording of these songs- just vocals, guitar and the space itself- no special FX. UNIFORM CLARITY is meant to illuminate the other side – raw and real, but very clear, much like in the early days of recording where all you could hear was the truth because there were no ways to manipulate recordings in the studio. “The idea for UNIFORM CLARITY came from UNIFORM DISTORTION,” says James, “an album of intentional chaos/dirt: literal and figurative distortion of lyrics and sound meant to echo and hopefully shed some light on the twisted times and distortion of the truth in which we now live. The new LP – which comprises acoustic renditions of the songs originally found on UNIFORM DISTORTION – arrives Friday, October 5 via ATO.
