Biography

Life, love and daily drudgery. Soaring highs and bottomed-out lows of this insane modern existence. This is the stuff of pop songs. The Last Royals exists both in this world and in the suspended teenage brain of singer-songwriter Eric James. Originally an outlet from producing and co-writing other wildly different projects, The Last Royals began as an experiment inspired by the miles of NYC concrete that James walked daily in Manhattan's Lower East Side. Writing and recording in the early off-hours of the morning, James wrote and tracked one song per day for 8 days of self-described “urban walking music”. The songs grew into something much more organic and caught the attention of Ooh La La Records, a Brooklyn based label. James eventually teamed up with drummer Mason Ingram to make it all come to life in the studio and on stage. Buoyed by the early success of the first single ‘Crystal Vases’ the band enjoyed life in an indie-darling fast line for a little, fleeting while. The tours were a blast, success was just around the corner and everything went terribly wrong along the way, as it so often does. And still life, love (and drudgery) go on. After a long hiatus, James has returned to his dark and dreamy journals again with a brand new collection of ideas making the new album ‘Truly. Modern. Love.’ another feather in the cap of that thing we all love so much about pop music… listening to someone tell it like it is. contact: thelastroyals@gmail.com
