The Last Word: James Bay
James Bay visited Last.fm to talk about how he got his start playing guitar after digging out a rusty old acoustic from his parent’s house as a kid, the transitional period going from a traditional 1 man unplugged setup to electric stage show. & his Let It Go Ep
James Bay possesses that untarnished strain of talent that many newcomers lose as they develop over time. His raw expressions and graveled voice work in a magical unison that captivates audiences and strips pop melodies back to a skeletal efficiency. Hailing from Hitchin, Hertfordshire, James has already gained a great reputation thanks to stints at Communion's monthly night at Notting Hill Arts Club in London and a hugely successful run of support slots with Tom Odell, John Newman and Kodaline.
