GORDEN JAMESGorden James has made quite
the name for himself, both as an artist and as an all around great guy. James was featured a few years back on CMT Canada’s, Big in a Small Town, as one of thirty artists selected
across Canada to participate.
"They
emailed me and asked me to audition," said James from his Kelowna home. "They picked 30 artists from across Canada,
two of them from BC. It was a really cool experience. All the staff and crew treated us like gold.
It gave my album, Heart of the Matter, great exposure. James also won a song writing competition in 2002 sponsored by Factor, CMT, and
Country radio across the nation!
In 2015 James
with the GOOD GUYS BAND backing him recorded the EP "Near You" with the title track making the "Top Ten"
in the CBC Searchlight contest in the summer of 2016! With shows From Vancouver to Toronto and beyond 2016 was a busy
summer with more to come!
James is an accomplished singer/songwriter who describes his style as urban country,
easy listening, with a touch of the blues. His debut album, Heart of the Matter, continues to get airplay across
Canada and overseas. When James isn't performing, he's spends
his time as a volunteer for hospice, doing shows at the cancer lodge, and he wrote a song for Soles4Souls, an organization
that gets shoes to people that need them in Canada and around the world.
