Our favorite ‘dreamer’, young José James has just completed his May tour which stretched from Cambridge to Norway to K-Space Amsterdam (to debut his new video ‘Park Bench People’) to Rome (with Nicola Conte) and ending up in St Petersburg. Speaking of new videos, José has also completed one with J.A.M (the Soil & “PIMP” Sessions trio) which you can now see here. No doubt José is also happy to be back at his Brownswood residency at Nublu New York with DJ Moni. Good news is that the next tour is already booked to include London’s Roundhouse 6 Aug and the mighty North Sea Jazz Festival 12 July on the same bill as other top newbies Melody Gardot, Lizz Wright, Soil & “PIMP” Sessions, and heavyweights Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Chaka Kahn, Pat Metheny and oh so many more. Also be on the look out for some dope new Jose tracks with Flying Lotus and live together at the Brainfeeder car park event in east London. Dream dream on …
