Since 2010, JAMES MADDOCK has quietly become one of the industry's breakout musical stories. With the release of the exquisite song cycle, Sunrise on Avenue C, Maddock has re-established himself as one of the most respected singer/songwriters on the scene. When Columbia Records released Songs from Stamford Hill in 2000 it looked like James Maddock was destined for stardom. All the benchmarks of burgeoning success were there; a top 5 Triple A radio song, prominent placements in TV/Film, inclusion on the first "Dawson’s Creek" compilation, and extensive touring with the likes of Paula Cole and Train. With his grass roots touring presence around the country and airplay on some of the most influential stations in the country, what seemed meant to be in 2001 is now taking shape in the new decade. "James Maddock's talent has a timeless quality he shares with the great songwriters. His music touches the soul. How happy I am to have him back on the radar screen ... the world at large needs artists like this.”
