“James McCann can do it all – blues, country, punk, even a hint of pop when he’s in a good mood. In a just world, he’d be feted as a legend of the Australian independent rock’n’roll scene. But McCann’s talent as a songwriter and musician hides in plain sight, which only adds to the significance of his rich and diverse musical catalogue.” - Patrick Emery (music journalist, author of Execution Days: The Life & Times of Spencer P. Jones)
JJ McCANN TRANSMISSION's new single "FORCES AT WORK" and album HIT WITH LOVE are out now
