Frontman of multi-million selling band Starsailor, James Walsh has proven his own worth as a singer-songwriter in his own right, having written w/ Eliza Doolittle, Suzanne Vega, & Pro Green.Now he’s back with his 2nd solo album and a tour to boot! Starsailors initial run of success saw both their Love is Here debut album and the 2003 follow-up Silence is Easy hit #2 on the UK charts as they raced to a total of 3 million sales. The band also enjoyed more than their fair share of prestigious gigs, supporting the likes of The Rolling Stones, The Police, The Killers, and U2. James released in his debut solo album Turning Point back in 2014. Turning Point was very much a coming of age album, full of wonderful examples of Jamess ability to weave inspiring melodies round simple chords, creating timeless and classic songs. James recorded his latest album Tiger On The Bridge in front of an audience of fans at RAK Studios in London, there was even a successful marriage proposal during the recording which James orchestrated on behalf of the groom-to-be. James said; Ive been lucky enough to have had some amazing moments creating music over the years that Im immensely proud of. But there was something particularly special about this experience. Writing these songs has helped me through a turbulent time in my life & recording it in front of the fans & people I work with whove been so supportive over the years felt like the perfect way to do it. Live: James will be heading out on the road to showcase the album and some Starsailor favourites in May and June this year, with the London show being 30th May at Bush Hall. James will also be playing Hardwick Live festival. Promo: Current support comes from BBC Radio Scotland, Belfast Telegraph, The Daily Mirror, The Sun & Gigslutz.
