Dump Grown Ass Man CD

Some of US know James McNew as the guy without the purse or penchant for Arthur Lyman from the Boston band Christmas, or perhaps as the snare-drum bassist for Yo La Tengo, or if you attended the Jodeci after party, you are probably more familiar with him as the auteur of his one-man band Dump. A Grown-Ass Man includes ten new cuts penned by McNew, three covers (The Isley Bros.' "Mr. Too Damn Good," Thin Lizzy's "Cowboy Song," and a duet with Sue Garner on Marvin Gaye & Mary Wells' "Once Upon a Time"). Between tours with Yo La Tengo, James will tour the coasts on his own by harvest time. Bring some Kleenex, emo kingpin, cuz these songs are going to have you growing streams of tears.
