It’s Still Our City | Ep. 15 James Munoz

by | Oct 13, 2025 | COMMUNITY, CULTURE, MUSIC, PODCASTS

“James Munoz, man, talk about a jack of all trades, this guy really does it all, and he’s one of the kindest people you’ll meet. A fun-inducing staple in the Richmond scene.

Vocalist and guitarist for Xed Out. Vocalist for The Bled and Glock/Coma. Bartender at Cobra Cabana for over six years. Host of karaoke nights: Sunday at DLB, Wednesday at Bingo and Brave Captain, and Thursday at The Veil (Scott’s Addition + Forest Hill). You might even catch him spinning as DJ Jimmy Moonshoes from time to time.

Meanwhile, I’m over here just trying to make sure I have clean socks.

This episode was a real walk down memory lane for Clair and me, we go way back with this guy. Join us as we talk about his journey into music, the road that led him to Richmond, tour stories, run-ins with the law, expired crickets, kitten attacks, and the moment I might’ve mortified Lady E.” — host, Harrison Christy
