Northern Irish singer-songwriter James Bradley has released a nostalgic new single titled 'When I Was Nine', also unveiling an accompanying video helmed by Paul Casey.

Bradley describes the poignant new cut as a song written about his childhood in Maghera, rural Derry. The father of four decided to pursue a career in music back in 2016, releasing his Better Place EP in the following years. James also made an appearance playing for Rory McIlroy and his guests at the Rory McIlroy Foundation event in the Bushmills Distillery in July 2017. His love of music stems from his childhood and his influences include Matchbox 20, Counting Crows matched with the guitar style of James Taylor and Mumford & Sons.

"At nine, you're living in the country, passing your time climbing trees and swimming in rivers and drinking Creamola foam, space raiders and sugar sandwiches," James tells Hot Press.

'When I Was Nine' includes Liam Bradley on drums and percussion, Johnny McCullough on piano, Damien McGeehan on fiddle, Paul Casey on bass and guitar and Bradley on vocals and guitar. The single was recorded at Cable Junction Studios, Derry.

In a busy month for Bradley, December 17th will see the release of Dance Between The Raindrops.
