Last night I went to see Tyler James perform in Birmingham on the second night of his tour. Tyler James recently rose to fame in this years series of The Voice where he was runner up, and most popular for singing a cover of the well known Higher Love.He released his first song Single Tear on 7th October, followed by his album, A Place I Go, on 29th October 2012, which he wrote in just 11 weeks.
The gig was held at The Glee Club in the centre of Birmingham; a small intimate setting, which was perfect for the mood of his songs. As Tyler stept on to the stage, a huge cheer from the smallish crowd erupted, and he began singing a selection of songs from his album. After the first three songs he welcomed us to his gig and modestly told us how lucky he was to be here and how his first year as a successful music artist has been. The crowd went on with an "aww" as he explained how he's been ill for the past two weeks, although his voice still sounded incredible live.
His singing was amazing, as he varied from his normal tone to falcetto, with me and the rest of the crowd attempting to join in! He was one of the best artists I've seen performing as he was pitch perfect, as well as being so modest which made him so much more attractive! He ended with his first single Single Tear which had the crowd cheering until he left the stage.
If you haven't heard his songs then get on to Youtube or buy his album from Itunes or Amazon. For a first album, it is really good and has some great songs that will leave you wanting more!
