James was great to work with from the get go, professional and on time. He took our inputs on the vibe we wanted to have for our party, he kept the music relevant to both adults and 17-18yr olds. He is a talented artist and our guests loved having live music. We highly recommend James!

Great Job!

I booked James Mills for a hot air balloon flight wedding ceremony and reception. Weather was not looking the best for our flight date so I reached out to James to see if we had to switch dates would he still be able to perform. He was not available for our back up date, but did offer services from another member of his agency who was absolutely AMAZING all around! Jam was friendly and outgoing and our bride was very very pleased with his performance. Great guy and a phenomenal performer! Afterwards he walked around and interacted with all the guests which I thought was just so nice. I would definitely book with them again. Thanks James and Jam!

Rehearsal Dinner Highlight

James did an excellent job reading the crowd and provided us with great entertainment. He even allowed us to use his microphone for speeches and making a few announcements. He was easy to work with, responded to my pesky questions quickly, showed up early to set up and started playing the minute we walked in. He played music for our crowd that ranged in age from 15- 84 and everyone commented on how much they enjoyed him. Thanks so much for making the night special for the group.

James Mills, entertainer of the year

It's been a long time since we've heard live music. so when the daughter turned 21 and wanted to invite a few friends, about 9, we used James as a surprise and it was fantastic. He even learned a Harry Styles song specifically for her. He has a huge song list in his memory and is a very good guitarist. We hope to see him soon.

Amazing!

James did Such a great job at our event! We're a 55+ community and hosted an (early) St. Patrick's Day Party on our Patio in which we hired him for the entertainment. I heard So many great reviews from our homeowners with his wide range of music, personality, and overall presence. He was able to read the crowd and adjust the level of sound accordingly. Such a nice guy with great talent, you can't go wrong booking him for any event that needs music!

Set List

For my full list, please request a quote. I regularly perform over 200 songs spanning all genres from modern hits back through the decades to the 1950's.

I love to play:
Modern Top 40 (Drake, Lumineers, Chainsmokers)
90s (Sublime, Smash Mouth, Gin Blossoms)
80s (Duran Duran, Rick Springfield, Tears for Fears)
70s (Rupert Holmes, The Police, John Denver)
Oldies (Johnny Cash, The Beatles, The Monkees)

Influences & Inspiration

Influenced by Weezer (I played guitar in the band in 2008).
Also love listening to pop classics like Maroon 5, and Muse, I throw in a ton of 80's songs by artists like Duran Duran and The Cure.
