Биография

Their latest single, 'Phoenix ' (Released 20th April) is the first release since the crowdfunded debut album ‘Heart of the Matter.' From the rock and roll circumstances of their first meeting, in a sand pit in play group 30 odd years ago, they have supported bands as diverse as My Baby, Holy Moly and the Crackers, Elles Bailey, Wille and the Bandits and Mad Dog Mcrea. Having recently played Glastonbury Festival and toured Sweden for the first time, this summer the band are off to play with Joe Bonamassa aboard his Keeping the Blues Alive Cruise in the Mediterranean. True Strays are lifelong friends, songwriters and country boys - Joseph James and James Cameron - from Bristol, England who are fast carving out a niche of their own in the UK Americana scene. Their music is a cathartic celebration of alternative roots americana and blues rock. 
 Their songs focus on the dirt that life throws at you and how struggle can be transformed into something better. The prolific songwriting duo draw influences from classic sounds such as Neil Young, Muddy Waters, Fleetwood Mac and modern retro inspired acts like Alabama Shakes, Gary Clark Jr and the Black Keys.
