The sound behind the name

Elliot James is an acoustic singer and guitarist based in York, performing across Yorkshire and further afield. His stripped-back arrangements move naturally from ceremony songs and relaxed afternoon sets to familiar evening favourites.

A compact setup, considered volume and calm approach make Elliot a natural fit for country houses, restaurants and spaces where the music should feel part of the room.

Based in: York
Travels: Up to 120 miles
