James Arlington - I’m No Artist (Official Video)
After a thousand day hiatus to hone his craft, Norwich-born, London-based James Arlington is back with soul pop track ‘I’m No Artist’, the first single from his debut EP out next year. Through a blend of soulful vocals and expressive storytelling, the track invites listeners on an emotive journey, balancing modern production with nostalgic undertones.
Resonating with fans of Jordan Rakei, Tame Impala, Alfie Templeman and hard life, ‘I’m No Artist’ explores themes of distance, contemplation, and the inexorable passage of time, solidifying James’ position as a versatile and innovative artist in the contemporary music scene.
Previously featured on the BBC Music Introducing Hot List with his debut single 'Alone', along with additional coverage towards his previous release, James has received generous amounts of support since the start of his career.
