About "Hey Brother"
"Hey Brother" is the first single from James's new album "Future Meets the Past" which will be out on Worldwide release Spring 2019.
The theme of “Hey Brother” explores what is often the first chapter of the story of local or family history. Peoples’ roots within, and connection to, local areas are important, and some people can trace their ancestral roots back to particular locations for hundreds of years. However, local or family histories also usually tell a story of peoples’ migration, as our ancestors have moved around different regions, seeking new opportunities, often out of dire necessity. Hey Brother tells one of these stories from the perspective of a newcomer to an area.
