Influences
JAMES' draws influences from his life and the lives of the people around him who are working their fingers to the bone...his musical influences began at a very early age growing up in fatima mansions flats when his dad would annoy the neighbours by blasting zeppelin, bowie and queen with the windows open full volume on the stereo... his own searching brought him through the world of classical (taught himself to write notation and score strings...like on 'sorrow')...spent teen years listening to guns n roses, depeche mode, the cure, lotsa bowie! "anything bitter sweet and beautiful and angry at the same time....anything REAL!....i dont care what 'style' it is as long as it has a real 'content'!!" at the moments he's got depeche mode and jeff buckley on his stereo a lot..
Sounds Like
an angel while kicking your teeth in....
JACKIE HAYDEN HOTPRESS------
"definitely one act for the majors to pay serious attention to."
ROAD RECORDS------
"...moments hinting at something like jeff buckley fronting early smashing pumpkins, there are lots of big explosive guitar heavy emotional alt rock sounds blended in with the odd string led ballad..."
YES FRANCESCA (USA)--------
"A voice like a wild soaring angel with a devil on his back..."
MUSIC REVEIW.COM--------
"you can hear where james is comin from pure heart and soul"

Hello all, the passive and uninformed Irish people in general and beyond the island, need to wake up on this one and discover their sense of outrage.....it's more than a sell off by our corrupt government, they are employing facists thugs to protect them and their friends in low places.
