A true native of the Windy City, Joshua James has spent years entertaining crowds in nightclubs, ballrooms, theaters, and various music venues all around Chicago.  Drawing upon the rich diversity of musical styles and eras that define the Chicago tradition, he takes you through a musical journey of classic songs that are guaranteed to put a smile on your face and a pep in your step!

Joshua James has wide-ranging experience in front of crowds that includes over fifteen years of playing weekly at Chicago's famous Green Mill (the very Green Mill that was run by Al Capone!), leading swing bands and rock bands for dance events and concerts all throughout Chicagoland, and releasing two full length albums that each spent several months on the top 50 jazz radio charts.

Joshua James is thrilled to pour his years of experience in front of many types of crowds into his energetic and dynamic cruise ship concerts!
