As lead guitarist in coldplay tribute band "COLDPLACE" i enjoy travelling the country meeting new people and basically having a good laugh with bandmates. At home i'm married to my loving wife Jo and we have two wonderful sons Baylee and Harry. When not enjoying these most important parts of my life i am now self employed as a window cleaner which is going great and is a great step for me to get out of shitty factory work. And yes my name is James Brown and no my pappa hasn't got a brand new bag :-)

COLDPLACE ARE:

VOCALS,PIANO AND GUITARS: SHANE CROFTS
LEAD GUITAR: JAMES BROWN
BASS GUITAR: ASA CROFTS
DRUMS: WAYNE BIRCH

My Interests

Well done to the Brighlights for winning The Road to V. May there future be long and Bright, the best thing to come out of Grimsby ever



Check out this band from Manchester, Top bollocks.

My family are my biggest interest in life, then comes my love of music and playing the guitar. Then last but not least my love of Liverpool fc.

Love all things MOD

I'd like to meet:

My biggest heroes Paul Weller and Noel Gallagher. Also being involved in coldplace it would be fantastic to meet up with the real deal at some point.

Music:

Top 5 songs of modern times
1. Oasis - The Masterplan
2. The Arctic Monkeys - Do Me A Favour
3. Arcade Fire - Rebellion(lies)
4. Coldplay - The Scientist
5. Bloc Party - So Here We Are

Best band for me has to be Oasis.
I'm a big fan of anything Mod including The Jam, The Who and all connected influences like northern soul etc.
Obvious massive love for The Beatles. Also current bands The Kooks, The Arctic Monkeys, The Kings of Leon, Maximo Park and Get cape, wear cape fly.
If you like my taste in music you will love an absolutely amazing band from Grimsby called THE BRIGHTLIGHTS "The Masterplan"

ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGS EVER. THE MASTERPLAN BY OASIS.

Movies:

Quadrophenia, Pulp Fiction, Goodfellas, The italian job (original not shitty American remake), Lock Stock and two smockin barrels, Snatch, And any horror film with loads of blood and guts.

Television:

I love a lot of comedy especially classics Only fools and horses, Porridge, Open all hours, Fawlty towers and numerous other classics. Really into topical comedy too although Have i got news for you has never been the same without Angus. Obviously i love watching my beloved Liverpool whenever they are on and to her credit Jo always knows when a match is on and if something else is on another channel she happily makes her way up to watch said programme in bed, what a woman :-) Music wise we don't get much good stuff on the box these days do we. Quite enjoy live from abbey road on channel 4 and also the NME chart show on MTV2, but i wish there was more live music on telly.

Books:

Don't do a lot of reading, not much time with my full time job, my life on the road with coldplace, and my full time job as father of two and husband to my wife Jo.

Heroes:

Paul Weller, John Lennon, Noel Gallagher, Richard Ashcroft, countless Liverpool legends, and of course a certain Joanne Brown (thats my wife)
