Frontier Touring and MG Live are delighted to announce British indie-rock musician James
Marriott will make his anticipated antipodean return this December.
From uploading acoustic covers to YouTube in 2012, James became a popular YouTube
personality, amassing millions of followers who tune in daily for his music, comedy and
relatable personality. Since launching his independent music career in 2020 with debut
single ‘slow down’, James Marriott has experienced an incredible trajectory.
After racking up more than 20 million streams, the Brighton-based alternative musician took
the time to perfectly craft his debut EP and released his first major body of work Bitter
Tongues in 2022, which solidified James Marriott as a multi-faceted artist & creative.
Drawing from artist inspirations like Phoebe Bridgers, The Strokes and The 1975, Bitter
Tongues is a genre-inclusive theatrical music piece in which James tackles his own
heartbreak, sexuality, love, and his creative identity on social media.
James Marriott returns down under a year after making his celebrated Australian debut in
2023 and selling out headline shows in Sydney and Melbourne, having well and truly
emerged onto the alt-rock scene as one to watch. Touring the EP consistently across the UK
on his own headline tour plus supporting Jake Bugg at London’s Royal Albert Hall and
performing at The Great Escape and Neighbourhood Weekender, James has cemented
his direction as an artist and creator. His first full length album Are We There Yet was
released in 2023 to acclaim from fans and critics alike.
Recently performing at this year’s Isle of Wight Festival and with upcoming performances
at Reading and Leeds Festivals next month, there are no signs of slowing down. Don’t
miss out as the multi-talented James Marriott heads to Australia and New Zealand to
perform a series of unforgettable headline shows this December.
