Performance Music Video of the fantastic James Turner for his new single release of Walk The Bridge. The singer-songwriter was born and bred in Liverpool. The city’s diverse musical melting pot was a heady influence on James and his stint spent working on Liverpool docks was a great learning experience. After quitting the day job James fronted several different line-ups, playing a rock’n’roll-meets-new-wave guitar style music; and releasing records on the Liverpool indie label Probe Records.
