Reuben James [2023] - Champagne Kisses [Rufio Records] (Album Teaser)


The title track from Reuben James' new studio album "Champagne Kisses" was released on 2 Jun featuring Ric Wilson, CARRTOONS & Joel Culpepper which followed two other tracks from the album,  "Love Stoned" (May '23) and "Means The World" (Apr '23).

The full album is due out on Friday 23 Jun along with seven new songs, one of which features legendary vibesman Roy Ayers. 

We are informed that it is his debut album although he released "Adore" in 2019 (which may be classed as an EP) along with "Tunnel Vision" which we believe is a live recording so this will be his first full studio album. In Dec '22 he also released his first set of solo recordings "Piano Love 1".

We've include the three singles released so far and will, of course, post the full album on release on Friday.

Birmingham based James made his name writing and touring with Sam Smith. He wrote songs for Smith's 4-million-selling album "The Thrill Of It All" and they have performed together around the world including at The Oscars and The Grammys.

He has worked and collaborated with the likes of Stormzy, Sam Smith, Disclosure, Marcus Mumford and Herbie Hancock which has led to James developing a unique sound and style of his own and he is now widely considered as one of the most exciting artists to have emerged from the UK in recent years.

Tracklist
01 - Toast (feat. CARRTOONS)
02 - Champagne Kisses (feat. Ric Wilson, Joel Culpepper & CARRTOONS)
03 - Means The World (feat. Braxton Cook, CARRTOONS & Gareth Lockrane)

07 - Time Will Tell

The track most likely to get picked up on, we think, will be "Sun Goes Down" with "Do To Me" being a nice retro sweet soul style ballad and then there's "Satisfaction" which feature Roy Ayers.
