Virtuoso jazz techniques and soulful vocals from British singer-songwriter, producer and pianist Reuben James.

Reuben James is widely regarded as one of the most exciting and creatively assured artists to have emerged in recent years. His infectious magnetism has led to a long list of artists lining up to collaborate with him. He has worked with superstars from Stormzy and Sam Smith to the likes of Herbie Hancock, Lang Lang, Marcus Mumford and Disclosure. These collaborations, blended with influences such as Frank Ocean, D’Angelo, Erykah Badu and Robert Glasper, have led to James’ unique sound and style.
