James Dalton may be from New Jersey, but he’s honed his craft in virtually every part of the world.
From tiny pubs to large festivals; from legendary clubs like the Stone Pony and the Bitter End to
ships at sail in the Baltic Sea; he’s won over audiences with his breathtaking vocals, energetic
harp playing, and wonderful tales that come to life through his music. His passport shows his
never-ending quest to entertain; he will go anywhere and perform at any time regardless of the
size of the venue or the location on the globe. It doesn’t matter whether he’s performing in front of
five people or five thousand, there’s rarely been an artist so comfortable in his own skin.
Dalton is an accomplished musician, actor, poet, writer, and stand-up comedian. He’s performed
on live Chinese television in front of millions and has a list of stage credits that includes
performances at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, TN, the Red Bank Jazz and Blues
Festival and the Great Bamboozle in NJ, the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival in Hillsdale, NY, the
Millenium Music Conference in Harrisburg, PA, and the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in Scotland.
