James Bay Picks Dream Collaborations With Ed Sheeran & Paul McCartney
James Bay and his guitar take center stage during his concert at the Sounds In The City concert event held at The Castlefield Bowl in Manchester, England on Wednesday night (July 6).
The 25-year-old “Let It Go” singer performed to a sold out crowd just after speaking with Absolute Radio about his dream collaborations.
“When you see what he’s done with more current artists like Kanye [West] and Rihanna. I’d be open to discussing it,” James shared about Paul McCartney. “I suppose I wouldn’t want to predetermine anything because the cool thing about working with someone with such a huge array of musical content from over so many decades is that he could kind of come at you with anything and I’d want to be open to all of that.”
He also picked Ed Sheeran as a cool collaboration: “Ed Sheeran is totally a candidate. When you look at all the stuff he’s done and how creative he is, I’d totally work with him. As a musician, it’s really fun getting to know another musician by not exactly involving actual music at first, not pressured, just chatting and if it naturally, organically grew to something like collaborating, then fantastic. Fingers crossed.”
