Born in Chicago in 1986, singer, songwriter and multi instrumentalist, Shawn James discovered the power of soul in music he experienced while growing up on the south side. His blend of blues, folk & soul music is full of contrasts — dark and light, anger and joy, earthy and airborne – while remaining gritty and real. This is his brand new solo album “On The Shoulder Of Giants”.

The album comes with nine songs. Each song is a very personal piece. The vocals come from deep within. With lots of passion and emotion, Shawn James is singing these songs to you. The low and edgy voice is combined with arrangements that are strong and piercing. Each song has its own soul. One that is filled with rhythm and blues. The southern sound is very present and will draw pictures in your mind. “On The Shoulder Of Giants” is an intense album.

Shawn James plays music that is rare. Pure music, filled with emotions and rough truth, wrapped in a rough sound that has its own soul. Impressive and piercing sounds come at you on this brand new solo album “On The Shoulder Of Giants”. Check it out and be impressed. You will not regret it.
