Boney James
“Storybook” ft. Larry Carlton
Twenty albums into a career built on deep groove and a saxophone voice all his own, Boney James is still finding new ground. Today, the four-time GRAMMY nominee and multi-platinum saxophonist, composer and producer announces new album A Simple Man, arriving October 2 via Concord Records. Vinyl editions of the album will be available November 6.
Produced by James, A Simple Man is a soulful collection shaped by his growing desire for clarity. The title began with a song, then became a reflection of how he now approaches both his work and his life: removing distraction so that the essential elements can come through more clearly. “I don’t need a lot of things to make me happy,” says James. “As I’ve gotten older, I’ve wanted to drop the extraneous things. The simple life is something I crave, and that spirit found its way into this album. A Simple Man is about getting closer to what feels essential, both in the music and in my life.”
Legendary guitarist Larry Carlton joins James on the Steely Dan-influenced “Storybook,” the first official radio release off the new album.
