Artist: James BerkleyHe/Him/His

Artistic Discipline: Music
Location: Spokane, WA

James Berkley is a singer songwriter who was raised in the Seattle area. While traveling he crafted songs to represent the beauty & pain that he has experienced during his journey. From losing his dad at a young age, to finding love & community in every city he performs in. The music has been the only constant through it all. You’ll hear both celebrations & self-reflection in his lyricism.

I am also in the band The Red Books which has been on Spokane Public Radio’s firehouse sessions as a winner of the songwriting contest & Spokane’ PBS for their Inlander sessions.
