The exciting duo of Branden James and James Clark will be stopping in Georgetown on the west coast leg of their international tour. Music On The Divide has booked 2 hours of the soulful timbre of James on cello combined with Branden's emotional and powerful vocals. Together they create a sound that leaves audiences feeling moved and inspired.

Branden James spent the beginnings of his career singing in residence at The Metropolitan Opera in New York City, Los Angeles Opera and Lyric Opera of Chicago. Having appeared in concert at The Hollywood Bowl, Lincoln Center and Trafalgar Square in London, his travels have also honored him with an opportunity to give personal performances for Pope Benedict XVI and the Nelson Mandela family in South Africa. He has kicked off games for the Los Angeles Lakers, Chicago Bulls, Cubs and Whitesox with his own passionate rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner.” In 2013 Branden inspired millions as a finalist on season 8 of America's Got Talent. He met James Clark, forming a duo in 2015, and they’ve since been touring the world with their innovative, classical/pop mash up, and their undeniable charm and wit.

As an accomplished musician, cellist, concert pianist and arranger, James Clark has performed with some of the biggest stars from around the world. With artists ranging from Idina Menzel and Olivia Newton-John to Van Dyke Parks and Lea Salonga, he has showcased his talents to a wide variety of audiences. Born in Adelaide, Australia, James holds a Master’s Degree in music performance from the Bob Cole Conservatory of Music, California State University, Long Beach. Prior to his music performance career, he was a tenured full time music teacher at Immanuel College, a Lutheran coed high school, where he was Director of Strings from 2007 to 2012. Utilizing his roles as cellist, pianist, arranger, and musical director, James Clark currently co-creates the cello-vocal duo BRANDEN & JAMES. He crafts intriguing arrangements of familiar tunes. His musical arrangements have been called "flawless" and "beautifully structured", and he is a sought after arranger for artists across all genres.
