James Byron

"The Voice is a great opportunity for me - I feel that the time is right to be heard. It’s the only thing that feels right in my life is singing. I didn’t have any vocal training growing up but then I moved to Brighton to study vocals at the Institute of Modern Music and it was amazing!

I started off singing heavy metal stuff, but have toned it down over the years with a singer/songwriter touch. I see myself as a soul singer with a rock star attitude"

DO YOU HAVE ANY BAD HABITS?

I smoke, I bite my nails and say ‘Bless’ a lot.

WHAT’S THE BEST THING YOU’VE EVER DONE?

My Band and I wrote a song for Charity that we went on to release for cancer research.

ANY PHOBIAS?

Hot drinks and mushrooms

WHAT’S YOUR MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT?

I tried to do a leap fog over a bin and skidded right across the floor, it was funny but really embarrassing in the moment.
