James Grant
Tonight I am off to see James Grant who is appearing at my good old local “The Fox and Hounds” in Houston, hopefully, babysitter permitting with Mr & Mrs Big Rab.
I have already posted on the career of James Grant (click HERE) as well as a specific post on his great album “Strange Flowers” (click HERE) but this will be my first experience of seeing him live.
“You’re Not The Only One” (Live) – James Grant

James is playing tomorrow night with the legendary Fraser Speirs who last year spent a fair amount of time on the road as a member of Paolo Nutini’s touring band.
Fraser has been a session player and live musician for so many artists but you can buy a CD of him live with some friends titled “About Time”

Great night and thanks for the invite. James is a great guitarist and vocalist. The songs were very powerful and Fraser Spiers’s understated accompaniment was perfect.
It really was subline, great curry, great company and the kind of performance which reinforce belief in real music amongst the “X Factor” factory.
Nothing beats a great voice set amonst a soundscape that enhances rather than shrouds it’s soul and James Grant delivered both as singer and guitarist with Fraser adding that added accent perfectly.
Great night!
