Katie James

Katie James returns to perform in London!
KATIE JAMES is an Anglo/Irish singer, songwriter and guitar player who was raised in Colombia, South America. She grew up in a small alternative community in the Andean Mountains, listening to a variety of Irish and European folk music but also to the traditional rhythms and melodies of her Colombian neighbours. This has strongly influenced her compositions where she naturally combines these elements into fresh sounding and deeply felt songs.
Over the last 20 years Katie has recorded 5 albums and toured the Americas and Europe performing in Colombia, Mexico, Costa Rica, The United States, Argentina, Uruguay, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Italy, Spain, Swizterland, The Netherlands and the UK.
Last year Katie won the prize for Best Folk Song in Colombia at the Premios Nuestra Tierra awards with the song En la Selva, a collaboration with world-famous Carlos Vives.
She is currently on tour while simultaneously preparing the material for her next album.
