Embracing a passionate approach to music, Ian James is one of the most talented up-and coming artists/producers in the pacific northwest. Hailing from the beautiful city of roses, Portland, Oregon, Ian is transforming the traditional music scene. Evoking similarities to music rooted in funk, gospel, soul and blues Ian is able to transcend the traditional R&B stereotype with his fusion of both upbeat and mellow rhythms.

Though his age of 23 maybe deceiving, Ian's music speaks volumes as to the type of person he is. "I put God and my family first" Ian has stated. This one man music machine is not just an artist, yet also creates, arranges and produces most of his own music. He has composed for other artists and welcomes the opportunity to share and expand his skills. Gifted on many instruments, Ian excels during live performances. With repeat appearances at Portland's popular Thursday night event entitled "Harlem Nights", Ian has solidified his ability to move even the most intimate of crowds.

With the development of the his official website being created, his current two myspace pages (www.myspace.com/ianjmusiclive)(www.myspace.com/ianjamesbeats)and his new riverfront radio page (www.riverfrontradio.com/ianjames) frequently updated, Ian aims to broaden his horizons and connect on a personal level with music enthusiasts and fans of all ages. Indeed Ian James is ready for his journey. Will you join him?
