Though his global fame is relatively newfound, British singer-songwriter James Bay is no stranger to Nashville. Not only did he perform in Music City for the first time last fall, opening for a pair of Hozier shows at Exit/In on the cusp of Hozier’s own superstardom, but he also recorded his debut full-length, Chaos and the Calm, which was released last month to critical acclaim, here in town at Blackbird Studio with producer Jacquire King. Returning for his first Music City headliner, Bay has announced a July 27 show at Marathon Music Works, and if his friend and musical peer Hozier taught us anything, you’ll want to grab tickets now; by the time this one rolls around, this might feel like a tiny space for such a buzzworthy new artist.
