Reuben James is a British pianist, singer, and songwriter with a brilliant career in the contemporary jazz, soul and R&B scene. Known for his musical sensitivity and ability to fuse genres such as funk, jazz improvisation and classic pop, James has collaborated with artists such as Sam Smith, Disclosure and Stormzy, in addition to writing part of the Ted Lasso soundtrack.

His third album, Big People Music, is his most ambitious project to date, featuring stellar collaborations with Jamie Cullum, Emeli Sandé, Jungle, Honne and Theo Croker. On this album, Reuben explores a mature and hypnotic sound that he defines as "grown-up music" while maintaining an accessible and vibrant spirit. With more than 50 million streams, his style is already unmistakable: elegance, groove and emotion in equal measure.
