Acoustic star James is an addictively-exuberant folk-rocker who combines the best of Americana roots music with almost manic energy.
He explains: “Skiffle is black roots music. Blues, country, folk and jazz which grew out of a huge variety of sounds in New Orleans.
“The songs are often trad, they’re simple, fun and require little more than three chords on a guitar
“It’s also the UK’s original acoustic-pop and has an important place in the present.”
