James entered the comedy world in 2010 as one half of award-winning duo Abandoman. Originally from the UK, and relocating to Perth at the start of the year, he has played a whole variety of iconic UK stages - from London Apollo to Glastonbury Festival to Brixton Academy. He has appeared on several British TV and radio shows, including 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown and The Stephen K Amos Show and won Hackney Empire’s New Act of The Year and the Musical Comedy Award. In 2018, James was nominated for the Best Comedy Award at FRINGE WORLD Perth and sold-out shows at Edinburgh Fringe and Adelaide Fringe with his first solo show ‘Sports For The Unsporty’. He returned to FRINGE WORLD last year with '1000 Great Lives' - a comedy sketch show about being forced to do a one-man theatre performance.
