We are delighted to welcome our second new Tonic Ska Choir facilitator, James (aka Jazz Priest), to Tonic.
James is a professional pianist/keyboardist, music teacher and choir director originally from Bermuda, currently living in London. He is a multi-genre, international performer having shared the stage with Mary J Blige, Robin Thicke, Kindred The Family Soul, Allison Hinds, The Mighty Clouds Of Joy and many more.
James said:
“Music is truly a universal language with the power to transcend social division. The world could certainly do with a little more harmony. In particular, communal music is the ideal vehicle to promote the values of equality and inclusion. I firmly believe that formal training should never be a requirement to participate in music, it must be accessible to anyone who wants to have fun. In my opinion music is the best medicine, a Tonic for the soul.”
