The James Hunter 6: A One-Band British Invasion

When The James Hunter 6 invaded the KNKX studios, we surrendered without a fight.  We surrendered to their high spirits, their musicianship and their great R&B grooves.

British singer/guitarist, James Hunter became known to American blues lovers in 2006 with his release, “People Gonna Talk.”  People certainly did talk and word quickly got around that James and his band were the real deal, playing wall-to-wall soul music and putting on great shows. 

On tour with their latest release, “Hold On,” the band made time to stop by the KNKX Performance Studio to chat a bit with KNKX music host, Mary McCann and give us live versions of some of the albums best tracks
