James and the Cold Gun are a high-energy rock band from Cardiff, Wales, delivering raw, riff-heavy anthems that channel the spirit of classic rock with a modern edge. The band, fronted by James Joseph and James Biss, are known for their no-frills approach to rock music, blending punk intensity with melodic hooks that leave a lasting impact. Drawing comparisons to bands like Foo Fighters and Queens of the Stone Age, their sound is loud, unapologetic, and built for the stage.
Renowned for their blistering live shows, James and the Cold Gun have quickly gained a reputation as one of the most exciting new rock acts in the UK. Their self-titled EP (2022) and tracks like “Long Way Home” and “It’s Mutual” showcase their gritty, guitar-driven style and their talent for crafting anthems that resonate with audiences. With tours supporting bands such as Therapy? and appearances at major festivals like 2000trees, James and the Cold Gun are rapidly making waves and establishing themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the modern rock scene.
