Los Angeles singer-songwriter James Houlahan faced tremendous challenges during the January 2025 fires while working on his new album, realizing the fragility of life. Now based in LA since 2012, Houlahan’s seventh album, On a Wing, encapsulates themes of resilience and the significance of music amidst turmoil. Recorded with producer Fernando Perdomo, the album features seven original songs that celebrate embracing change and perseverance, supported by the chemistry of renowned musicians Danny Frankel (k.d. lang, Lou Reed) and Greg Cohen (Tom Waits, John Zorn). With contributions from folk legend John Kruth (Ornette Coleman, Violent Femmes), who enriches the soundscape with diverse instruments, Houlahan’s work draws imagery from nature and flight, echoing Emily Dickinson’s sentiment that “hope is the thing with feathers.” Through his music, Houlahan seeks to uplift and inspire, inviting listeners to envision a world filled with beauty and hope.
