Some years on from an early appearance on stage in a sixth-grade musical, singer/guitarist James Bruner is beginning to make a mark as a promising solo artist. Raised in Springfield, Illinois, his love for rock came from discovering greats like Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath as a young skateboarder – activities that share in rebellion.
Bruner released his latest EP, The Otherside, a few months back. Across its five tracks, there’s ample rock’n’roll street smarts à la Guns N’ Roses and the Rolling Stones.
