Kris James is firmly on the rise. Having recently supported Will Young and Anastacia throughout the UK and Europe on tour. Music has always been a huge part of Kris’ life since childhood. When he was only eight-years-old, he would sing classics by Otis Redding, Prince and Frank Sinatra . Kris always showed a deep appreciation for songwriting and he would sit in his bedroom honing his craft, ready for when he could perform his own songs to audiences around the world.   Reflecting on his musical odyssey, Kris recounts his father's initial skepticism about his chosen path: "Me going into music was a bit annoying for my dad as he’d always thought I would go into the family business." At the remarkable age of 21, while successfully managing his own bar in Liverpool, Kris's mother insisted that he pay his dues, embarking on a journey of self-discovery that would shape his destiny. With unwavering determination, Kris took to the stage, crooning Frank Sinatra's timeless classics, enchanting audiences at every gig he played. His mother's words echoed in his mind: "If you can do that, you can do anything."   There will be much more new music to come from Kris James throughout the rest of the year and live shows.
