James Marriott

Singer, songwriter, and guitarist James Marriott was born in Switzerland on July 7, 1997, and was raised in Buckinghamshire, England. Interested in music at a young age, he combined his hobby of uploading animated content online with his love of playing guitar and began sharing music oriented videos on social media. He became popular on several social media platforms before finally decided to commit himself to upload his own original rock and pop songs. Influenced by indie rock artists like the Strokes and Foals, James Marriott began writing his own material. With a sound that effortlessly bridges the worlds of indie, folk, and alternative rock, he made a name for himself with his emotionally raw lyrics, distinctive voice, and genre-blending style. After the 2020 release of his debut single “Slow Down,” he released his No Left Brain EP the following year. James Marriott’s debut full-length album, Are We There Yet?, was released in 2023 and landed in the Top 20 in the UK and Scotland. His sophomore effort, Don't Tell the Dog, was released in 2025 and topped the charts in the UK and Scotland. The album featured three singles that made the Top 40 in New Zealand: “I Don’t Want to Live Like This,” “It’s Only Love,” and “Something’s Wrong.”
