James Vickery is ready to bare his soul to the world. His journey has been anything but ordinary, marked by resilience and a deep passion for music. Vickery is completely deaf in one ear. At eight, he was diagnosed with a skin growth called a cholesteatoma. An operation saved his life, and a vocal coach soon discovered his astonishing singing abilities.

He shared his story in the 2021 documentary, Louder, which also explored his unique heritage. Born to a Welsh father and South African mother, Vickery, who is white-passing, has occasionally struggled with misconceptions from strangers. Vickery has a catalogue most artists would envy. His famous COLORS SHOW has earned 40M views and his debut album, Songs That Make Me Feel – featuring R&B legend Musiq Soulchild and Atlanta hip-hop duo EarthGang – saw him hailed as the new face of UK R&B. Vickery’s success is a testament to his strength, and his music reflects that—an artist fully stepping into his own, without fear or hesitation.
