Crazy James - Live Acoustic Covers

Hello! My name is James Wenstrup, better known as Crazy James (yes there's a story behind it, no I can't legally tell you), and I am an entertainer.

I play over 700 popular cover songs ranging from classic rock to pop to country, in a high-energy, crowd centric show - perfect for bars, restaurants, parties, and other events! My goal is to make sure everyone in the audience is having the best time they possibly can.

Currently, I am mostly playing along side the duo Plaid Sandwich to make the trio creatively named, "Crazy James and the Plaid Sandwich". We cover largely the same catalog of songs.

The best part? I / We are currently open for booking! If you're interested, please contact me!

I also host trivia nights, bar bingo, karaoke, and more, check out Four Points Entertainment for info!

  ELYSIUM LIVE TRACKS ONLINE

So a few months ago I uploaded some songs from back in my Elysium days to a hidden page on this site. That page is hidden no longer. I've uploaded what I have been able to dig up so far from my old computers, including lyrics, and a BUNCH of old recordings. So take a look around.

ALSO: tomorrow I'm heading into The Studio with MJ (a.k.a the SquirrelMaster) to do some quick tracks. Keep eyes and ears open!

Stay frosty, -J.
