James Farrell on purevolume™

Rock / Folk Rock / Other

Native Chicagoan, James Farrell brings a certain comfort and natural sincerity to everything he plays. A classically trained pianist and composer, James spent his early adolescence feeling his way around composition and honing the skills that would later serve him well as he began his songwriting career at the prestigious Berklee College of Music. Deeply inspired by storytelling legends Tom Waits and Randy Newman, James has crafted a modern approach to songwriting from the perspective of the everyman. At once a youthful optimist and unapologetic realist, James appreciates the ironic, finds humor in the mundane, and refuses to sugar coat. James' easy poeticism and unforgettable melodies bring an accessible eclecticism appreciated by listeners from all walks of life. Effortlessly weaving bittersweet stories of love and loss, inadequacy, and the unavoidable mini-sagas of life, James will find a way to hit you where it hurts while simultaneously brightening the darkest corners of modern life.
