James George / by E

Catch up with UK-based indie rock singer-songwriter James George and listen to his single "Make You Mine", out now.

What first got you interested in music?

James George: I come from a family of musicians so i was introduced to music from an early age. I was about 12 when I got my first guitar and I have been writing ever since.

Which musicians have you been influenced by?

Growing up I was influenced by The Beatles.

If you were to make a playlist for your fans, what three songs - from other artists - would you have to include?

The Beatles - "Help"

The Killers - "Smile Like You Mean It"

Arctic Monkeys - "Leave Before The Lights Come On"

Which words would you use to describe your sound?

Electric, upbeat and catchy.

What were your inspirations behind your latest single, "Make You Mine"?

I wrote "Make You Mine" by writing what I thought sounded good and what I enjoyed, there is no real inspiration from any other musicians in there, it does have a sound of other bands but that's just pure coincidence.

Do you have plans to release an album or EP?

I have a new single coming out very soon and an album to be released later in the year.
