Whether delivering up-tempo R&B or crafting candlelit ballads, James Hunter is a must-see performer who draws effortlessly from the depths of his musical influences, leaving audiences captivated and craving more.
Set for release January 16th, Off the Fence marks a landmark moment in Hunter’s career, representing his past, present, and future. The album captures everything that makes his songwriting, delivery, and outlook so distinctive while ushering in a fresh chapter with its debut on Dan Auerbach’s (The Black Keys) Easy Eye Sound label.
