“There’s nothing like writing songs,” says Karli Chayne, lead singer in rising country duo Karli & James. “The vibe I get when I’m putting my feelings—or even someone else’s feelings—on paper, then turning those emotions into a song…it just does it for me.”

​

“And the really exciting part for me,” adds her partner, James Sinclair-Stott, with equal enthusiasm, “is taking a song we’ve written on acoustic guitar and making it a full-blown, radio-quality production.”

​

Those two perspectives are crucial to the energy this duo brings to their artistry. Her dedication to the craft of songwriting and his ear for production shines strongly through their music.
