James Bambu

James Bambu is an American singer and songwriter currently based in Brooklyn, New York. Originally from Atlanta, Georgia, James began very early on with curating his own path in the world of music as an Alternative R&B singer. In pursuit of furthering his sonic quest, James relocated to New York City,  where he began releasing music in 2016. 

James has gained a devoted following for his honest storytelling, unique vocals, and transparency about his creative, and robustly visual, journey. He has continued to persevere through the obstacles he has faced as an unapologetically authentic artist, but is determined to make a name for himself to break down barriers for the future of R&B, while telling his story through his music. Adopting the term “musically fluid”, James puts a progressive, yet nostalgic twist on traditional R&B, and he hopes to help shape what Black Alternative artistry looks like in the future.
