“Jim James (from My Morning Jacket) / Rolling Stone magazine, Australia. April 2012.
My portrait of Jim James—my tenth collaboration with Rolling Stone—is finally here. For this occasion I tried to evoke the aesthetics of some forgotten children’s activity book to depict My Morning Jacket’s lead man and the tunes, beats and rhythms that have influenced his work across time.

notes Knot comes looseB.B.B.B. can’t you see that I’m smiling?
Can’t you see -there’s a part of me that’s brand new?
Used to be was a part of me felt like hiding
But now it comes thru!
Deep in my heart - that’s where the knot comes loose
Deep in my heart - I will remember you- Knot Comes Loose, My Morning Jacket (2005)
What a scene has got you sentimental
When the night comes
When the knot comes loose
All the things you put on your mantle
What a shame, what a shame
It’s old news- Ahead of the Curve, Monsters of Folk (2009)

notesWhy does my mind blow to bits
Everytime they play that song?
It’s just the way that he sings
Not the words that he says or the band
I’m in love with this soul
It’s a meaning that I understand- The Way That He Sings, My Morning Jacket

notes June, 2001Interviewer: What is your greatest fear? JimJames: Watching "American Beauty" by myself. When the ending comes on after he is shot, it's so beautiful it hurts. It feels good to have someone there. I've never had to watch it alone – that scares me. -

notes"All of the vampires and werewolves we met on the set of The Vampire Diaries were nice regular folks just like most of us – good upstanding citizens, but forced to live with this secret tragic double-life dilemma. They treated us most fairly and with dignity and respect as they sucked our bodily fluids dry and smothered us in sexy kisses. God bless them. God bless them all."Jim James assures fans that My Morning Jacket were treated well and that no musicians were harmed in the making of the “Homecoming” episode of The Vampire Diaries.

notes"I think it all comes down to responsibility and conscience. If you’re leading a good life and you’re putting food on the table and you’re keeping a roof over family’s head and everybody’s got health insurance, then please buy our record. But if our country is too messed up to know that it’s the right thing to provide people with health insurance, and make it an option, it’s not some crazy agenda, (…) just make it happen. Yeah ‘cause if my friends can’t afford health insurance, then please steal music from the Internet all day long. But at the same time there’s a responsibility, because if you do have money and you can buy records, then you should buy records if you want to see your favorite bands keep making records."Jim James on filesharing, Boing Boing
