James Day is a southern blues artist and storyteller from Biloxi, Mississippi. James Day and the Fish Fry have been playing shows and festivals in the Mid-Atlantic for the past ten years. At the heart of their music is Day's fresh, humorous songwriting brought to life by the musical stylings and performances of this talented group of musicians. The Fish Fry are: Mark Shewchuk (guitar) Ron Baldwin (piano), John Merigliano (drums) and Dave Young (acoustic bass). Their new CD, Southland with Day's original songwriting, covers a wide sonic pallete and is a tribute to all Gulf Coast music.
