Since bursting onto the Canadian country music scene following his 2014 signing with MDM Recordings Inc., award winning country artist David James (MDM Recordings Inc. / Universal Music Canada) has lived by the motto “nothing worth having comes easy and opportunity looks a lot like hard work,” and work hard he does. The 2016 release of his debut EP “Songs About A Girl” garnered the Manitoba native two Canadian Country Music Association Award nominations including a nod in the “Rising Star” category, his debut performance at the highly celebrated Boots and Hearts Music Festival, a Canadian Radio Music Award nomination for “Best New Group or Solo Artist: Country” and a tour slot with country artist Chad Brownlee before returning to the studio to begin working on a new EP. “All The Time”, released in August of 2019 became James’ fastest climbing song at radio to date and boasts over 1.3 million collective streams to date. The companion video debuted on CMT in the U.S. as part of their ‘Next Up Now Program’ – a program created to highlight songs and videos of up-and-coming stars in the country music genre. Kicking off 2020, is the release of the single “If I Were You” on March 6th followed by an EP release of the same name on March 13th. “If I Were You” is written by Corey Crowder, Tyler Hubbard (1/2 of the Diamond selling duo Florida Georgia Line), Michael Wilson Hardy and Bart Butler.
