Moors is often compared to such luminaries as Greg Brown, Peter Himmelman and John Hiatt. James is now a family man with two young girls, carefree ravels have given way to a path with a deeper purpose, and Moors' songwriting has been a major beneficiary. With the release of his CD Hush, Moors entices the inner cynic from the shadow, to bask in the glow of the present moment.
