Aiden James (born August 9, 1982) is an American pop singer, songwriter, musician and producer from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He has released two albums to date, and has toured extensively throughout the United States both as a solo performer and as an opening act for Matt Morris, Shawn Colvin and Andy Bell.
He was born on August 9, 1982 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He grew up in the foster care system and does not know his mother and father. He started playing the piano at age 4, and started to sing at age 6. He started performing in children's choirs and small theatre productions. He has told the press that his first musical memory was trying to play Richard Marx's "Right Here Waiting" on a toy keyboard at the age of four or five.
In 2008, James released his debut album On the Run. His video for the album's title track received airplay on both MTV and Logo, expanding his audience beyond Philadelphia. Over the next few years, he supported the album by touring extensively, including an appearance at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival in 2010, a live performance on SiriusXM, and a tour with singer-songwriter Christopher Dallman which included performances in Philadelphia, New York City, Boston, Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles and San Diego.
In 2011, he released the single "Best Shot" to iTunes as an advance preview of his forthcoming album Trouble with This. The album, supported largely through crowdfunding, followed in 2012, and was supported by a video for the single "Hurry Hurry". A house music remix of "Hurry Hurry" by Radboy was also released.
