JAMES APOLLO confirms two NYC live shows in January 2010 to preview new songs from his upcoming EP and new album. The five song EP, HOW HARD A HEART OF GOLD CAN BE will be available on February 2nd, 2010 and features songs from Apollo’s fourth full length album, THE DAYS, released in May 2010.
A constant theme of APOLLO’s songwriting is the ill-fated hero with a heart of gold. This EP showcases APOLLO’s growth as a songwriter, highlighted by “No East, No West” among four originals, as well as a stunning cover of “Dark End of the Street.”

Born at the foot of the Ozark Mountains and raised in Libertyville, Arkansas, James Apollo celebrated his 16th birthday by hitting the interstate heading west. “I was playing a new town every night. I was living in diners, sleeping in the trunk of my car,” he says. “I had it made.”
