Jose James
genre: Jazz
date: 11-01-2008
venue: Paradiso - Small Hall
By combining urban blues, hip-hop, soul and drum'n bass, American jazz/soul singer José James manages to create a fresh and renewing sound which is rooted in the tradition of jazz. Soul singer Marvin Gaye and saxophonist John Coltrane were of great influence to José James.
The Minneapolis based José James is one of the great jazz promises of 2008. His, already praised, debut album 'The Dreamer' will be released January 28th on Gilles Peterson's label Brownswood.
