Vince James to Open for Half Moon Run
If you think you might be a little too old for trick or treating this year, think about
catching a local concert! Montreal boys, Half Moon Run and Vince James will be
lighting up the stage at the M Telus on Halloween night.

You might know Half Moon Run, but it’s time to get to know Vince. Based in
Montreal, the artist has been on a steady climb in the city’s music industry since
2016. After honing his craft in the west, James released his self-
discovering EP “Who is James,” here in Montreal to showcase his talent. Later, James collaborated with artists such as Fouki and LaF , and continued to
grow his talent and fan base.
In 2017, James put together a band featuring classical and jazz trained musicians,
Sebastian Real Hernandez, Tomas Leger, and Antonin Mercier. Each member brings
excellence and artistry to the band, helping James bring his vision to life.
In his album/short film, “Cherry Blue,” blues, soul, and psychedelic rock come
together in a new an exciting way that has us craving more. Layers of guitar and
synth compliment unexpected brass additions in songs that feel perfect for getting
away from it all. This past year, James has been working in preparation for an exciting, new album release titled, “Entertainer’s Club.”
Catch him on October 31 st to hear a taste of the new stuff!
