James is also currently rehearsing with a full backing band & shall be performing live with them in the coming months.
Once James's CD has been recorded in full he will be looking to take his sound as far as he can!
At the moment, James is playing on a regular basis in the Portsmouth area and will soon be looking to play regulary outside of his hometown aswell.
For any information about James and his music, please feel free to send a message.
Thanks for stopping by & take care...
"Young singer/songwriter James Tippins has appeared from nowhere and his knack of laying bare emotion over a strumming guitar and transforming it into powerful and touching songs has endeared him to audiences wherever he has played. His sound, a mix of James Morrison's ear for a catchy tune and David Ford style rhetoric, bodes well for an exciting future."
