James Shears
INSTRUMENT: Lead Vocals, Acoustic Guitar and Percussion
MUSICAL EXPERIENCE: I was part of a successful acoustic trio in South Africa many moons ago and I still have a song or two regularly on the radio down there.
FAVOURITE MUSICAL MOMENT: Being three rows from the front at a Crosby, Stills and Nash gig in 1996 while they sang 'All Along The Lee Shore'. Goose bump time!!
ULTIMATE MUSICAL FANTASY: Well I've already eaten chocolate cake back stage with Level 42's Mark King so I guess the next dream would be playing 'Carolina In My Mind' with James Taylor on his patio in Martha's Vineyard.
FAVE 5CATFISH TUNE: 'Hard to Handle'. It takes me back to memories of joining the band and sweaty rehearsal rooms around Oxford!
