James Gedda is an up-and-coming Country and Americana singer-songwriter with a booming voice and a plainspoken honesty in his lyrics. The Crown Point, IN native has drawn comparisons to the likes of Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard with his earthy baritone, and he regularly covers such classics, but what drives him is writing songs and telling stories with modern sensibilities. He's performed in such historic venues as The Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, and regularly sings all over Northwest Indiana and the Chicago area. In March 2019, he released his debut EP Thick as Thieves to great success. In February 2020, he released his sophomore Ep, Bad Things Happen: Dynaline Sessions Vol. 1, a collection of original songs ranging from indignant folk tunes to heart-on-the-sleeve love songs. James Gedda is not an artist to miss if you're a fan of infectious melodies and affecting stories.
