At the heart of every Anthony James song is a beat you can't ignore, beckoning your hips to get up and dance. On his debut EP, Pursuit Of Happiness, the Australian-born Londoner espouses such irresistible rhythms to catchy, bittersweet hooks and driving guitar lines. The end result is pop music with a gritty edge... the perfect array of loveable melodies with a tinge of heightened emotion. 

With a fully formed sound and vast musical palette, Pursuit Of Happiness is a solid introduction to Anthony James' talent for songwriting, and his rich, soulful voice. Taking solo songs and giving them size and weight, Pursuit Of Happiness is essentially the debut of the Anthony James Band – a lineup formed in the UK to articulate Anthony's well-rounded pop creations.
