“There’s nothing like writing songs,” says Karli Chayne, lead singer in rising country duo Karli & James. “The vibe I get when I’m putting my feelings on paper, then turning those emotions into a song…it just does it for me.” Her partner, James Sinclair-Stott, is equally enthusiastic about the recording process: “The really exciting part for me is taking a song we’ve written on acoustic guitar and making it a full-blown, radio-quality production.”
Those two perspectives are crucial to the energy this duo brings to their artistry. Karli leans pure country; James leans indie rock, and the result is a refreshingly modern blend that the critics love. “Karli’s winsome soprano takes the lead with James’s soft harmony backing her flawlessly.…Well produced and radio ready,” notes Robert K. Oermann, MusicRow magazine.
