Experience Early James live on November 19th

Early James, an American singer-songwriter, is scheduled to perform at St Mary’s Creative Space in Chester, United Kingdom on November 19, 2026. James’s music is often described as blending elements of blues, folk, and alternative country, characterized by raw vocals, slide guitar work, and lyrical themes exploring hardship, spirituality, and the American South. He gained prominence through self-released music and independent touring before signing with a record label.

St Mary’s Creative Space is located within the historic St Mary’s Church, Chester – a building with origins dating back to the 15th century. The church underwent significant restoration in the late 20th and early 21st centuries and was subsequently repurposed as a multi-arts venue. It now functions as a flexible performance space hosting a diverse range of events including music concerts, theatre productions, art exhibitions and community activities. The space retains many original architectural features alongside modern technical facilities. It is known for its intimate atmosphere and focus on supporting emerging artists alongside established acts. The venue aims to bridge the gap between heritage and contemporary culture within the city of Chester.
