"Crazy Mountain Billies are just crazy, man. Crazy ..."
- Portland Weekly Volcano
"The one man Line-up works for his brand of bluegrass; instead of monotonous jamming his songs overflow with real melodies on multiple instruments. His unique vocals also are worthy of praise."

“… the one-man-band better known as Crazy Mountain Billies, is a force of nature on the banjo!”
- Rapid City Cultural Trends Examiner
Crazy Mountain Billies is the alias used by multi-instrumental musician and producer A.P. Bormes to describe the sound of a full ensemble that is created by the solo performer in the studio. The C.M.B. sound utilizes acoustic folk insturmentation with elements of mountain bluegrass musical style at its foundation, and then takes it out of that dimension entirely. "I can say with absolute certainty that I have rarely heard anything quite like the Crazy Mountain Billies... the playing is exceptional from this multi-talented multi-instrumentalist... all of the elements of Bluegrass, but without being classifiable as being part of that genre…"-American Roots UK. Crazy Mountain Billies was established in Montana, and now resides in Colorado.
Currently the artist is performing live and arranging new songs for a planned upcoming double album release.
All of the C.M.B. material is self-recorded, produced, written, performed, mixed, etc... The instruments used include: 5 and 6 string banjo, 5 string bass, acoustic guitar, mandolin, slide guitar, classical guitar, autoharp, jaw-harp, harmonica, tin whistle, washboard, vibraslap, shakers, cabassa, tambourines etc...
After departing Hollywood, CA and finishing audio engineering school in 2008-2009, A.P. Bormes crossed country to Montana and a recording studio was temporarily established to track the first two albums- a double release: "Don't Move Or I'll Shoot/Badlands" inspired by the rugged terrain and lifestyle of the midwest and Rocky Mountain backcountry. Shortly thereafter ''Badlands II" was also recorded and then released August 1, 2010. Then A.P. Bormes went down to the Black Hills of South Dakota and recorded ''Badlands III'' inside a remote log cabin and released the record April 15, 2011. C.M.B. spent the remainder of the year touring the Western U.S. and eventually went back into the studio to record the album ''Hit Like A Hammer" (released May 31,2012) as well as "Burn Down The Mountain" [E.P.] (released Nov. 22, 2012). Several music videos were also shot and released during this period.

Hey Chris, I know you probably won’t see this but I just wanna say thank you so much.
I’m a recovering alcoholic and I’m celebrating over 400 days sober when I was in the hospital getting better, I watched your channel in between group, and before I went to bed, and it just made me laugh so much even though I was going through a terrible time. The video you made on next where the guy gets emotionally distraught because he didn’t get the girl is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen in my life.
Youtubers like yourself inspired me to make my own channel I don’t do comedy like yourself but I love to help people and I document my recovery from addiction
If it wasn’t for Youtubers like you, I would never have done this, so I just wanted to say thank you so much

I went through a lot of phases…at first I thought this was not real because it was just too much and the monsters sounded unbelievable
Then I thought it must be real because nobody would want to show up on TV looking the way they do
Then there was all of trappers stuff going on
I really wanted it to be real , but it just seemed to be over the top
But then again, look at the way they’re dressed who would show up on TV looking like that , plus one of them peed on himself
Then, there is all the weird really weird stuff
Like the woman of the woods, and all those constructions that were made … They all seemed pretty fake to me.
So I was confused the whole time I was watching it !!!
I definitely can’t say I was entertained the whole time I watched
I just wish they would be honest from the beginning whether it’s real or not
@ChrisJamesTV
PO Box address in the video is WRONG, updated in description!

@BOTGRINDER
Do you want some of my stupid merch? i make hoodies and xmas sweaters i would love to send ya one...
@ccole99
For all the same reasons this is one of my favorite shows and it gets worse (or for me) better as the seasons go along!!! RIP Traper!!!
Oh, in for a show that sometimes have to be quiet there’s a awful lot of yelling !!!
@ccole99
If you need me to recommend episodes, I could definitely do so. There is way better ones. Then his father saw something that he didn’t see!!!
@seahorsegangg
You REALLY need to react to a show called call of the wild man I think it would be an amazing fit for you and the channel lmao
@teeblackwell6301
I like to imagine that notebook Jeff carrys around religiously through out the show is filled with nothing but grocery list's for all the times he thought they was going to the store.
@mitchellbernhardt2973
or just a very simple flip book animation of stick figures doing it

@joedirt2210
I like to put a like on your comment but hate to ruin that 420 because these guys must high crop test I'd imagine maybe a few mushrooms from that shopping list.
