Born and raised in Newcastle Australia, KRISTY JAMES has been performing for most of her life. A professional singer and performer, Kristy is able to entertain any crowd with her mix of sixties songs right through to now. As a solo performer Kristy sings, plays guitar and uses her stompbox, the duo version upgrades the stompbox to a full drum kit with two vocals giving the act a full sound with a driving beat guaranteed to get any audience up dancing.
JAMES exploded onto the original music scene in 2012 with her first single "Overdrive" charting on both radio and television. Kristy has been likened to artists such as Sheryl Crow, Melissa Etheridge, Jewel and Alanis Morissette.
Kristy has continued to enjoy years of success and has maintained consistency on the iTunes charts with multiple #2s behind artists such as Taylor Swift and Keith Urban. She has performed all over Australia with her band and as a solo act performing at prestigious venues such as the ANZ stadium. James has supported acts such as Bachelor Girl, Thirsty Merc, Jack Jones, Daryl Braithwaite, Jon Stevens, Jessica Mauboy, James Reyne and Russell Morris.
In 2018 Kristy appeared on Channel 7’s All Together Now as a judge alongside Ronan Keating and Choirboys Mark Gable.
Kristy has performed for the past two decades touring Australia and overseas.
An award-winning performer, singer and songwriter, she has been recognised as
the Phonographic Performance Company of Australia (PPCA) Australian Performer of the Year for two years running. She has released 4 albums, had multiple iTunes #2 singles, and had the second highest-selling album in Australia the week she released her album RAW, giving her an ARIA #2 charting position.
In the years 2016 & 2017, Kristy won the Australian Song of the Year award with her tracks "Overdrive" and "Take Me Down". Kristy has been featured in newspapers, magazines, television, and radio and has enjoyed a highly successful music career.
