James Walsh first found widespread success as the lead vocalist, songwriter, and guitarist of the multi-platinum indie-rock band Starsailor. Formed in the early 2000s, the band became a staple of the British indie scene with massive hits like "Good Souls" and "Alcoholic". Alongside his ongoing work with Starsailor, Walsh has established a prolific solo career, releasing well-received albums including Turning Point (2014), Tiger on the Bridge (2019), and Small Illusions (2021). His recent EP, Renewal, continues to showcase his signature acoustic arrangements, tender balladry, and intimate lyricism. Ben Ottewell is an English singer-songwriter and guitarist best known as a founding member of the indie-rock band Gomez. The band burst onto the scene in the late 1990s, with their 1998 debut album Bring It On winning the Mercury Prize. Ottewell's distinctive baritone voice and blues-infused guitar work became defining characteristics of the band's eclectic sound. As a solo artist, he has released albums such as Shapes & Shadows and A Man Apart, exploring a stripped-back, acoustic style heavily rooted in folk, blues, and emotive storytelling.
