James is a poet, spoken word artist and musician from South London. Cool, charming, grounded with a fresh and natural delivery.
James Massiah was commissioned by CIRCA (Cultural Institute of Radical Contemporary Arts) to write the poem 'Sea Song' to commemorate 75 years since HMT Empire Windrush arrived in the UK. The poem was broadcast on the Piccadilly Circus screens to mark Windrush Day.
'True Romance' finds James Massiah stretching his studio limbs. It moves from vulnerability to hedonism, with ‘Wagwan’ pivoting to his spoken word roots. Listen now on streaming platforms or buy the vinyl!
