About his new single Graeme says: "Set during a summer holiday in Italy, ‘The Angel of St. George‘ chronicles a life changing weekend in Venice. After initially planning to skip the city altogether, my wife and I experienced a series of beautifully serendipitous moments in Venice and what felt like a divinely inspired reminder to truly embrace who we were made to be."
Last year, Graeme James started the ambitious project of releasing four seasonal EPs in a year. The first one was 'Old Storms in New Places', which came out in September at the same time as the autumnal equinox. Next came 'The Weight Of Many Winters', which, as the title suggests, is inspired by the emotional and physical landscape of the winter season. This EP featured 'The Voyage Of James Caird', which Rolling Stone named a Song You Need To Know, saying Graeme “revives the lost art of the shipwreck song.” Last addition to the project was the aforementioned Spring-themed EP 'A Sea of Infinite Possibilities', an exuberant celebration of life and all of its joys.
Though he is now based in the Netherlands, Graeme spent the last number of years building a large and loyal fan base throughout his native New Zealand and beyond with his carefully crafted multi-instrumental soundscapes. His captivating and dynamic live shows are performed as a one-man band with the aid of a loop pedal to layer violin, guitar, bass, baritone ukulele, banjo, mandolin, accordion, harmonica and percussion.
