James McMurtry, Texas rock and Americana music singer, songwriter, guitarist, bandleader and occasional actor has been called "a poet of the people," by the Village Voice. In September 2006, Childish Things and "We Can't Make It Here" won the Americana Music Awards for album and song of the year, respectively. McMurtry received more Americana Music Award nominations for 2008's Just Us Kids and the album marked his highest Billboard 200 chart position in more than 19 years. Stephen King, writing in Entertainment Weekly, pronounced him "the truest, fiercest songwriter of his generation." The Austin Chronicle proclaimed, "This is no-frills, freak-flag rock. Turn it up!" PopMatters called it "a snapshot of where McMurtry is now, [marking him] as a legitimate inheritor of the Texas songwriting tradition."
