James Wolff
James Wolff has a unique voice and a unique talent. From the rhythms of Gardel and Piazzola to the wit of Leonard Cohen and the drama of Nick Cave, he sings songs which are equally majestic and tragic with a lyrical turn of phrase second to none.
"Jaques Brel and Tom Waits influenced singer-songwriter with crankily inventive arrangements and a voice who’s intonation curiously recalls Nico" Time Out
In the summer of 2007 he performed at the iTunes festival supporting Imogen Heap at The Institute of Contemporary Arts in Pall Mall London.
He has also collaborated on a number of projects, including appearing on Peter J. Schwalm’s recent release, “Musikain” and on Leo Abraham’s forthcoming album based on the works of the American poet, Bingo Gazingo. In 2005 Wolff composed an original score for the UK premiere of ‘Molly’s Dream’, the play by Maria Irene Fornes, performed at the Battersea Arts Centre.
