James Carothers

Nashville honky-tonk crooner James Carothers is best known for his stone-country originals and spot-on impressions of some of country music's greatest icons. James has performed in Nashville since 2015, having played over 2500 shows at venues like AJ's Good Time Bar, Martin’s BBQ, The Nashville Palace, and Music City Bar when he's not on the road. He enjoys playing at fairs, festivals, bars, corporate events, and private events across the United States and has also traveled to Canada, Japan, Scotland, Norway, Lichtenstein, Brazil, and the Faroe Islands for shows. Just before the 2020 shutdown, James fulfilled a lifelong dream by making his Grand Ole Opry debut at the Ryman Auditorium, where he received two standing ovations from crowds that included many friends and family. Another milestone was being selected by Alan Jackson to open several dates on Jackson’s Honky Tonk Highway & Last Call: One More For The Road tours during the past few years. James released his latest single, “Muscadine Wine,” in 2024. Previous releases include several singles and albums Whatcha Got Left (2021), Songs & Stories (2019), Still Country, Still King: A Tribute to George Jones (2018), Relapse (2017), and Honky Tonk Land (2014).
