THE PRANKS are a South African indie/dream-wave/horror-funk band that get dark and roff. Ex Fruits and Veggies with some other weirdos involved.

I am a heavy metal musician from a little-known country called South Africa. I will use this page to share bits and pieces of all the musical projects I end up having a finger in.

lo-fi self-expression and fun. What is art? If it doesn't turn you on, turn it off.

James Bracken found a fortuitous connection that led to a productive series of recording sessions documenting Bracken’s expansive catalog and tracking a brand new batch of songs released as Echo Messenger.

Hey. I am a late bloomer musically. Initially I started on acoustic guitar, then within the last 4 years: Banjo, slide guitar, dobro, recorder, harmonica and singing.  Most of my songs are rough, unpolished, unpracticed, recordings made on an old laptop. Thank you for the love and support, the insights and ideas, the camaraderie and fellowship, Lammbone
