In the chill vibes of November, the up-and-coming talent from Brighton graced us with his inaugural opus, “Are We There Yet?”. The album effortlessly climbed the alt charts, securing a coveted spot in the Top 20 of the UK Official Album Chart. With influences echoing The Strokes, Bloc Party, and Foals, this 10-track masterpiece showcases James’ anthemic indie prowess, cleverly interwoven with his gift for crafting emotionally charged and intimate lyrics, revealing the dichotomy inherent in his artistry. A seasoned performer, James has shared the stage with the likes of Jake Bugg and Lovejoy, leaving his mark on notable festivals such as the Great Escape, Live at Leeds, Neighbourhood Weekender, and Reading & Leeds, where he owned the Thursday night at Leeds and kicked off the main stage at Reading!
As the buzz surrounding him intensifies, James embarks on a tour across the UK and EU, a journey that’s gained momentum with sold-out shows leading to a recent extension. Brace yourselves, Manchester, London, Glasgow, and the cool confines of SWX in Bristol on January 21st – you’re in for an indie experience like no other!
