Boney James’ Search For Undiscovered Talent
Boney James had a rocking 2009 and things are only looking up for this major force in the world of contemporary jazz music. This past year, James has been named Billboard’s #3 Contemporary Jazz Artist of the Decade and #1 Hot Smooth Jazz Artist. He is currently writing for his next album and has announced he will be holding an online search in 2010 to give undiscovered vocal talent the opportunity to appear on the new album.
Boney first came up with the idea after he asked his friends if they knew anyone new he could work with. For the Grammy nominated song, “Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight,” James teamed up with a friend of a friend vocalist, named Quinn. “He really had the voice I was looking for on this track– a real retro/modern soulful voice… as soon as I heard it, I knew he was right…” Boney James is excited for this new venture, “I’m always trying to match a singer with a song.”
The specific details of his next album and when the search will officially launch are still to be determined. More information will be available soon at Boney James’ official website.
