About / Biography

James is a singer/pianist based in Bedfordshire. James first discovered he could sing whilst listening to the Stevie Wonder records in his Dad’s vinyl collection. He then honed his vocal skills in the church throughout his childhood whilst also learning classical piano. After graduating from music college where he studied Jazz, James embarked on a career as a musician. Despite fronting bands and also writing much original music over the years, performing as a solo artist remains his number one passion!

James is simply one of the best performers in the business… He has a broad repertoire, of pop, soul, R&B and swing covers and regularly performs at private events around the UK and beyond. James often uses a looper and backing tracks to enhance his performances. He has 20+ years of experience as a musician performing at thousands of events and during this time. He has performed at The Royal Albert Hall, The Teatre de Liceu in Barcelona and headlined London’s Jazz Cafe. Over the years, James has appeared with many established artists including Sting, Muse, Thirty Seconds To Mars, Mika and many others and previous clients include The Royal Family, Adidas, Google and the BBC.
