About Me
Gordon James
Based out of New Jersey, USA, Gordon James, is a sought after
performer, composer, arranger, producer & recording artist preparing to
make a huge splash in the International music markets.
Smoothjazz.com has referred to him as one of the 'smooth Jazz elites
on trumpet & flugelhorn' . Gordon James has been categorized with
other Jazz heavyweights such as: Chris Botti, Rick Braun & Greg
Adams. Stylistically, he has been compared to: Chet Baker, Miles Davis
& Chuck Mangione.
Although these comparisons are quite impressive, Gordon James
remains true to his craft & unique persona by weaving his own tapestry
of Jazz, Latin, R&B, Blues, Funk and Soul! My music is both
funky & lyrical; the arrangements are hip & polished says James.
With five smooth jazz CDs under his belt Gordon's new CD is a jazz and blues release of
New Orleans inspired original music. The CD called Come on Down captures the sound and style of New Orleans
music with unique lyrics about the music and culture of New Orleans.
