Juno Award Winning Singer-songwriter Colin James new album, 'Blue Highways' was co-produced by Colin and Dave Meszaros (Wake Owl, Old Man Canyon) and recorded at The Warehouse Studios in Vancouver.

In the Spring of 2015 Colin wrapped up his Hearts on Fire tour. Colin was loving playing with the band and really happy with the sound they had created on stage. What better time to make a record?Especially the record Colin had been itching to make for years - a collection of some of his favorite blues tracks. In less than a week Colin and his touring band went into The Warehouse Studios in Vancouver and in just 2 days, Blue Highways was born.
