Keith James
A unique voice within the fabric of music in the UK
WORD PAINTINGS
THE KEITH JAMES SONGBOOK
A long awaited Concert tour
Mature, insightful and intriguing - sensitive and honest,
Spanning the past 50 years, Keith has performed thousands of enthusiastically received shows in Arts Centres and Theatres throughout the UK. Thoughtful, interpretive concerts devoted to the writing of visionary Songwriters and Poets who he has always admired.
The success of these concerts has been such, that it has somewhat eclipsed Keith’s own material (which has mostly been heard on his 12 Album releases) so the writing and release of this new and significant body of work Word Paintings has given Keith, and those alongside him the confidence to open a door and let this treasure chest of original songs be heard..
