Bio
James Rees, originally from the West Midlands but now based in London, is a multifaceted artist. As a singer-songwriter, producer and educator, he passionately champions the DIY approach, embracing self-imposed limitations as a catalyst for innovation. His debut E.P. is a testament to this ethos, and was recorded entirely on cassette tape earlier this year, resulting in a lo-fi, authentic sound.
The Normal People E.P.
My Debut E.P. was released on 24th March 2023
The E.P. is the product of a collaboration between myself and my friend Daniel Green. We recorded the songs together using an old 4-track cassette recorder.
We wanted to try and move away from slick modern recording techniques, and attempt to capture what it might have been like to create an E.P. before the influx of computer recording technology.
The E.P. is available to stream on all major streaming services now.
