Scott James

“I discovered my love of music at a very young age and it has defined my life ever since — singing, songwriting, composing, performing. There is something about music that clarifies life and allows me to express my feelings in the most honest way. It’s hard to describe, but I know my life would be empty without it.

Many people ask how I would describe my music and that’s always a tricky question for me. John Mayer, Jeff Buckley, and Bob Dylan have been major influences, but I have my own unique style and continue to explore where the music takes me. The highs and lows of life inspire my writing. I want my listeners to feel like they can relate my songs to what they’re going through in their own lives. I also have a passion for playing guitar — it’s an amazing instrument and when played can help convey so many emotions. Pop, rock and soul influences me, but to me the genre doesn’t matter, because no matter what you call it, the music is what it is.”
