"Just Got Started Lovin' You"

This is a country sensational artist! James Otto also, a member of the "MuzikMafia" is unique & very talented! The first song I ever sang to my wife was "Just Got Started Lovin' You" & it has continued to grow stronger. This hub is dedicated to her & James Otto....

Brief History:

  • Member of "MuzikMafia"
  • He opened for Shania Twain on her "Up! Tour" in 2004.
  • James was signed with "Mercury Nashville Records" in 2002 but was released in 2004.
  • He co-wrote songs for "Cowboy Troy" & sang background vocals on 2 of Cowboy Troy's albums.
  • Warner Bros. Records signed him on in 2007 & BAM! He hit a first single hit song "Just Got Started Lovin' You" on his 2nd album the "Sunset Man" & off to the spotlight.

Facts:

  • "Jay DeMarcus" of "Rascal Flatts" is James Otto's brother-in-law. Jay & "John Rich" co-produced the "Sunset Album."
  • The new "Atlanta Braves" song "The Braves Play Here" was commisioned for James Otto to perform the new theme song.
  • "Jamey Johnson" hit song "In Color" was co-wrote by James Otto, Jamey Johnson, & Lee Thomas Miller.
  • James Otto has 3 albums titled, "Days of Our Lives", "Sunset Man", & "James Otto." I encourage you to check them all out. Great Stuff!
  • He was born on July 29, 1973 in Washington State at Fort Lewis Army Base. I guess I have 2 things in common with James. I was born at an Army Base in Cristobal, Panama Canal Zone. I'm sure he makes the natives of Washington state very proud!
  • He plays the violin, saxophone, & guitar.
  • James Otto served 2 years in the United States Navy.
  • He has been living in Nashville, TN since 1998.

I predict we will see a lot more from James Otto soon.....He has a unique quality, voice, & passion for music. For more information, check out his website at www.jamesotto.net

Congratulations! to James & his wife Amy on their expecting baby....

A special thanks to my loving & beautiful wife! I am so glad my first song I ever sang to you was by James Otto. See how artists can become apart of your life & memories....Thanks to James for making the song possible......

I like country songs, too. I even have several compositions to brag for, but I'm too shy to publoish it in YouTube. Thanks for following me, Michael Shane.
