James Maddock

Who is James Maddock?

James Maddock is a British singer-songwriter and performing musician. Originally from Countesthorpe, Leicester, Maddock has been based in New York City since he moved in 2003.

One of his earlier bands 'Fire Next Time', who played up-tempo left-wing soul, released a well-received album 'North to South' on Polydor Records in 1988.

Maddock's first public success in the U.S. was with his band Wood, whose album Songs From Stamford Hill produced multiple songs appearing on the hit TV show Dawson's Creek, including the Top 5 single 'Stay You'.

Maddock, though British, is largely associated with the Americana music style and has performed with Bruce Springsteen. Maddock has since become a solo artist releasing three albums, including 'Sunrise On Avenue C' which won the 2010/11 NY Music Award for 'Best Americana Album', and is currently a resident artist at Rockwood Music Hall in New York City.

Maddock's five most recent albums, Sunrise on Avenue C, Jimmy & Immy Live at Rockwood Music Hall, Wake Up and Dream, James Maddock: Live At the Rockwood Music Hall, and "Another Life" were released by the independent record label Casa Del Fuego.
