James Preston Allen & The James Report at COLLAGE

James Preston Allen has been called the storyteller of San Pedro, and he has formed a stellar band for the release of his fifth album, Days Before the Ghosts and the Rains. Channeling touches of Woody Guthrie, Tom Waits, and acoustic Springsteen, Allen’s poems-set-to-music offer tales both unique and personally sublime.
