Toronto, ON / Winnipeg, MB – February 11, 2016 – Canadian Country Music Awards® (CCMA®) 2014 Discovery Program Finalist David James (MDM Recordings Inc. / Universal Music Canada) is set to release his debut 6 song EP, Songs About A Girl
on March 11, 2016. Produced in collaboration with the industry’s
premiere talents Darren Savard (Dallas Smith) and Carly Savard (One More
Girl), with its bare honesty and refined musicality the EP is set to
capture the hearts of fans. The EP features James’ new single “Lonely Girl”, which will be released to Canadian country radio on March 8, 2016.
The charming romantic of the Canadian country music scene, it is no
coincidence the release follows closely after Valentine’s Day. Says
James, “These songs all carry aspects of the human experience we all
share – love, passion, perseverance, and really laying it all on the
line for those you care about.” Three years in the making, every note
has been meticulously crafted to evoke the deepest and complex emotions
amidst the listeners.
James continues, “I love the raw emotive human drive conveyed in “Lay It
On Me”. “Lonely Girl” has such an honest innocence about it. I’ve
poured so much of myself into all 6 of these songs, and that’s precisely
why they’re on this record.”
In celebration of this release, James will host an EP release party on
March 16, 2016 in his hometown of Winnipeg, MB (details to be
announced). In 2015 James won his first Manitoba Country Music Award
(MCMA) in the Music Video of the Year category for his first single off
of the EP, “What We Weren’t Looking For”. He will also tour throughout 2016, including an appearance at Boots and Hearts in August.
