The Sunday Sessions: James Bay’s live acoustic performance for us will blow you away

This guy is a real talent.

James Bay is a hugely exciting performer and has been one of the most talked about artists in the second half of 2014. The singer-songwriter is on BBC Sound of 2015 list and is one of the favourites to win it so chances are he'll be all over your radio in the next 12 months. James is no stranger to Ireland having already played The Academy twice in his short career and his performance there a few weeks ago was stunning. We caught up with James just before that gig and he performed two awesome acoustic songs for us. Enjoy.
