A third strike for this Notting Hill songster. Two years after his second album "Comeback Crazy" this new offering hits the nail on the head and proceeds to hammer it through the wall!
Tracks including Easy, Mess You About, Good Times and Sunny Day, are just some of the fresh ingredients in this spicy album.
Just add some punchy drums, pounding bass, sprinkle on some flavorsome Les Paul licks, sizzle for 42 minutes and you have the ultimate experience that is the JNA sound. Soulful upbeat rock, like pouring full fat milk on your cornflakes.

When James realised he was in some way related to 17th century genius Sir Isaac Newton, he wondered why he was never any good at Maths, but then one day it occurred to him that perhaps his talents lay elsewhere. After all he was a Musician, a Blacksmith and an Artist. Most of his life, people hadn't taken him seriously, in fact, he hadn't taken himself that seriously.

It wasn't until he met Sascha Panknin, the washed out bassist from the Fantastischen Vier and a longhair guitar picker from the "West Side" of Portobello Road, 'Wig' Simmins that suddenly people started to listen. James and the newly-formed band had penned a bunch of songs together, now they were getting into the vibe. It was time to do some recording. So they did.
After hammering out the album tracks in a Scottish studio, they spent some time recording and mixing it in Spain. This is the result. Hope you like it!
"This new album from James Newton Adams & Co is a rather marvelous musical elaboration." G.J.

Return of the Notting Hill Blacksmith!
2 years after his acclaimed debut "Stripdown" we placed him in a studio and rolled tape. And so transpired these tales of innocence, irony and insanity. "Comeback Crazy" an album with more hooks than the hanging gardens of Babylon. Grown up nursery rhymes for indie pop lovers everywhere. Some already call it "album of the year" ... others would go even further.

What happens when you place a 26 year old blacksmith from Notting Hill, London in a recording studio and roll some tape?
In the case of James Newton Adams you get an extraordinary song based album in the Lo-Fi tradition, think BECK meets COLDPLAY whilst chilling out over at LOU REED's place.
James brings his voice, Tom Gray, son of The Police producer Nigel Gray plays guitar, Nick Webb of The Lea Shores blows the cornet and producer Sascha Panknin (disjam, butter, superpulse) adds bass, keyboards and a handful of electronic accessories.
"Stripdown": a must for everyone who likes Electro-Future-Retro music.
