Lexi James walks on stage armed with a fierce command of the converging genres of country and pop music. She has amassed a large fan following, and has several major performances under her belt including performing with Jordan Davis, Phil Vassar, Brad Paisley, and the incomparable late Charlie Daniels. She performs with soulful vocals, captivating lyricism, and an alluring stage presence. What distinguishes her from the rest of the pack is her undeniable charisma on and off the stage - she sure knows how to leave an impression.
Lexi James continues to push her music into new realms, with her newest self-produced work, “Leaving Me Slowly” written, recorded, and produced in New England, from which she hails. Her 2018 release “Ripple in The Water” features songs written by Lexi, co-written by Carrie Underwood, and was recorded with Grammy and ACM award winner, Julian King. It has since solidified Lexi’s music and image as unapologetically authentic. Her 2016 album "Brave" is no different in its authenticity, as it offers listeners a complex experience of her hurt and loss that are paired with courageously uplifting songs. Such is true with the title track "Brave" which challenges listeners to embrace their inner fire with its driving lyrics.
Lexi James not only performs these themes on stage, she lives them and they serve as a testament to her unrelenting spirit. When she developed a stutter in her childhood, she found solace in singing and songwriting, and it continues to be a driving force behind all she does. She encourages herself and others to embrace their uniqueness and does so in a way that will continue to influence her music for years to come.
