Born in Minneapolis of Irish and Panamanian descent, James has learnt a thing or two about good song-writing in his 28 years.
His intoxicating blend of jazz, hip-hop, R&B and electronica is
found on his previous albums, The Dreamer, Black Magic . On his latest
release, No Beginning No End, he delves deeper into pop songs whilst
keeping his ever unique spin on jazz and soul music.
Catch him at Bedroom Bar, for a very special London show.
“No Beginning No End sums up how I feel about music right now, I
don’t want to be confined to any particular style. I decided I didn’t
want to be considered a jazz singer anymore and that was really freeing.
Once I realized that jazz singing is just something that I do and it’s
just a label, it freed me as an artist to just write without any
boundaries.”- José James
“A rising jazz star… Spectacular… There’s nothing tentative or
delicate about his voice, which carries marks of jazz vocalists and also
soul singers from Marvin Gaye to Barry White.” - John Caramanica, New
York Times
“I thought singers like this didn’t exist anymore, I was wrong, José
James is here to remind us why we love music so much!”- Gilles
Peterson, BBC 6 Music
