Early James is a Folk/Blues musician based in Birmingham, Alabama. He brings a fresh take on folk, blues, jazz and country with dark, rusty, crooner-esque stylings.
His music is influenced by artists such as GA-20, Nat Myers, The Texas Gentlemen, Theo Lawrence and Riley Downing. With his unique sound and captivating performances, Early James stands out among his peers.
If you enjoy the music of Melissa Carper, The Deslondes or Luke Winslow-King, you will definitely appreciate Early James' soulful melodies and heartfelt lyrics. His talent shines through in every song he creates.

Alabama's native son, Early James, returns with his sophomore album, Strange Time To Be Alive. The lyrical wordsmith conjures the ghosts of great southern gothic writers from Eudora Welty to William Faulkner, while channeling the haunted spirits of Tom Waits and Townes Van Zandt. The album evokes a timeless amalgam of forsaken blues, wistful folk, and Tin Pan Alley crooning, anchored by the singer’s unmistakable voice that sways from gravel-filled shouts to pained, forlorn whispers.
