Mickey James 5 Quick Questions [New Single – Crybaby]
Who is Micky James?
Pitched as Bowie meets The Clash, I was hesitant. But, New York’s glam rock artist Micky James, has turned my head. I wouldn’t have included The Clash in describing Micky, but from the second he opened his mouth on the Crybaby video, I was hooked.
The single details being stuck in a toxic relationship. James shares, “Crybaby to me feels like my most rock’n’roll song yet. Like all good rock’n’roll songs, the message and the feeling get right to the point”.
He is fun to watch, a dynamite singer, intriguing, energetic, fierce, and he definitely rocks.
Crybaby is in high rotation on SiriusXM, and James has been getting a little attention from Billboard and Live Nation’s Ones To Watch. We’re watching Micky.
Thanks to Micky for answering our questions.
