Henry James - Love Should Be So Easy (Album)

Phoenix based R&B and soul artist Henry James has released his long awaited debut album, Love Should Be So Easy, a deeply personal nine-track collection that showcases his talents as a vocalist, multi instrumentalist and producer.

Written and entirely self-produced, the album blends smooth soul, jazz and contemporary R&B, exploring love, heartbreak and self-discovery with an honesty that feels both intimate and relatable. Henry describes the project as a reflection of "a time in my life when I was learning how to love and be loved", hoping listeners will find pieces of their own experiences within the music.

Standout moments include the groove led opener "Brand New", the nostalgic early 2000s R&B feel of "Songs to Write", and the spacey, genre bending "Funky Alien Girl", while tracks such as "Unlovable" reveal the emotional vulnerability that sits at the heart of the record. The title track rounds things off in style, evolving from an uplifting soul anthem into a sleek electronic finale.

Already building momentum with more than 33,000 monthly Spotify listeners, over 100,000 streams for "Play My Favourite Song", and playlist support for "Brand New" across Spotify's Fresh Finds and Fresh Finds R&B, Henry James is quickly establishing himself as one of the UK's most exciting emerging voices in modern soul and R&B. Love Should Be So Easy is available now.
