James Montgomery is an American blues musician, best known as the lead singer, blues harp player, frontman, and bandleader of The James Montgomery Blues Band (a.k.a. The James Montgomery Band). Montgomery collaborates with many star performers and recording artists. He is also the past President of The New England Blues Society.
In 1970, Montgomery formed The James Montgomery Band. His harmonica playing, singing and energetic stage show led to his band gaining a reputation as one of the hottest bands on the New England music scene. Montgomery was signed by Capricorn Records to a multi-album deal, and released his first album titled First Time Out (1973). The original LP recordings were remastered and released as an Audio CD in October 20, 1998. Track 9 off his first album titled Train was a fan favorite and became the number one song on WBCN (FM). They played it every day at noon-time for over a year. In 2011, Montgomery used Train as part of his encore at shows.
