Up&Coming: Corrie James21 January, 2007 — Hazel Gardner

Demo material

World take notice- this guy rocks. As soon as the riff kicked in to 'Show Me Your Love' I was sold. Corrie James is classic rock through and through, and if you like AC/DC, Aerosmith, and especially if you like Buckcherry, you're gonna love this.

In the 3 songs available on MySpace ('Show Me Your Love', 'Goin' My Way' and 'Dead Man's Walk'), James provides us with solid, groovy riffs and a strong voice suited perfectly to the genre. It's the kind of music that makes me want to reach for the nearest beer, and think fondly of my favourite biker bar.

Even if his brand of bluesy-rock isn't your cup of tea, there is no denying James' talent; as the singer, songwriter and sole musician on this project, his work really is impressive. 'Show Me Your Love' in particular, is one hell of a song.

So, go to myspace.com/corriejamesunsigned, turn up the volume, and enjoy. Air guitar optional.

What next?More by Corrie James? More up and coming? More rock?
