Ronnie "Ro" James

Ronnie James is one to watch. Known by close friends as “Ro James”, he began his love affair with music as a young child in the pews of his father’s church. It was there he was surrounded by music that meant as much to hear as to sing and quickly developed a connection with melodies that have since refused to go unnoticed.

Despite comparisions to legends like Donny Hathaway and Jodeci, Ronnie has a style to call his own. His first single, a cover of “Creep” by Radiohead, has won over fans of all genres because of his ability to maintain the song’s rock-roots while bringing his own flavor through his singing
and production.

Aside from his music, Ronnie is extremely passionate about mentoring kids in his community. He understands the importance of education and hopes to inspire the next generation of singers and songwriters through sharing his talents. When asked what seperates him from the next talented male artist, Ronnie confidently replies:
“I feel that it is my duty to reaquaint the world with music and what its mission is. Music is made to teach, to heal and to provide hope.. I don’t feel the need to compete because I’m confident in my talent and there’s room for everyone to share their gift. Music is not a gimmick and it is not
a trend. Neither am I. I just want to leave my mark and I don’t want to be someone who simply lived
and died; I want people to know I was here.”
