Lay Me Down EP

by The James Riley Band

supported by

Tom Mills Stumbled upon just a lone James Riley playing at Kendal Calling, a festival in the English lake district. I was taken aback by his soulful mixture of blues and country. Frank Turner played that festival. I enjoyed James Riley more. Favorite track: Hammer Falling.
