PERFORMERS:

James Liandu is a musical artist hailing from Dundee, Scotland, who puts a completely different spin on the term “singer/songwriter”. He is all about making music that you can really feel. Taking influence from every song, every project he’s been a part of, and everyday life; he applies it all to his music. 

So far, he has dropped a debut EP (2020) & 4 singles (2020 - present). These songs showcase the different sides to him musically, showing that he won’t box himself in any specific genre, rather create something of his own nature. Expect a lot more to come…
