Shawn James

Shawn James makes deep, brooding folk and blues built around his voice, a huge, weathered instrument that carries most of the weight in his songs. He works in what gets tagged as southern gothic, all reverb and restraint, and has built a following of over 333,000 on Spotify without much need for radio or hype.

He has shows coming up in Colorado at the Aggie Theatre and Ophelia's Electric Soapbox, two rooms that suit the kind of quiet-to-loud dynamics his music runs on.
