The Past

Independent artist James Scott has come a long way since his first debut country performance in Bendigo, Victoria in 2009. With James cover album ‘By Chance’ under his belt, along with his exceptional vocal ability, he became an instant hit among local country music fans, artists and radio personalities such as Olive Bice, Floreena Forbes, Anne Conway and Peter Sheahan.
James was taken under the guidance and help by Olive Bice (Victoria’s Queen of Country) and her son Richard Bice.
Richard continued on to become James’ producer and it wasn’t long until James released his second CD ‘Beggar’s and Thieves’’ in early 2010. This album raised more interest among fans and radio stations across Australia, receiving massive air play nationally for James’ first original country song’s ‘Coming Home’, ‘Beggar’s and Thieves’, ‘Time Piece’s and ‘Cry Angel’.
With 2 CD’s to showcase, James was soon being interviewed on various radio stations across Australia and performing live.
Highlighted performances include:
Fundraiser for Charlize, Peter Sheahan’s Phoenix FM Fundraiser and a special guest with Anne Conway at the N.A.T.S.I.A.C conference.
