James Wright Releases Self-Titled Debut EP from GMA Records

Get to know more about GMA Network's newest recording artist--James Wright--the guy who caught our attention for being the voice behind "Sana'y Ikaw," the theme song of the Marian Rivera-Alden Richards teleserye "Carmela."

JamesWright

James was born in Australia and he grew up in Hong Kong. 7 months ago, he emailed an audition video to GMA Network for the now defunct reality show “Anak Ko ‘Yan” and immediately received a reply inviting him to come to the Philippines because he made it as one of the finalists.

Although James did not win the show (he only made it to Top 5), his vocal prowess got the attention of GMA Records and with the help of GMA Artist Center and E-Talent Management, the Filipino-Australian lad is now a full-fledged recording artist!

Last week, GMA Records released James Wright’s self-titled debut EP with the infectious “Sana’y Ikaw” as the carrier single. There are four other songs in the EP, all of which are Filipino love songs like “Babe,” “Ikaw Yon,” “Kung Hindi Ikaw,” and “Ako’y Sa ‘Yo”–all helmed by industry veteran Vehnee Saturno. Also included in the EP are the minus one version of the five songs which fans can sing along to.

Three things that you still don’t know about James:

“When I was young I love to experiment with drinks and the one drink that kinda threw me off was ‘yung coke and milk so I mixed those two then sumakit ang tiyan ko.”

“I was a die hard Harry Potter fan from Part 1 to Part 8, I watched every single movie at least 10 times.”

“I always sing South Border’s “Rainbow” while in the shower.”

Three things that describe him according to…him:

1. Fun 2. young 3. hip

Three celebrity crushes:

“I used to have a crush on Yassi Pressman, Marian Rivera and Heart Evangelista.”

Three songs on his playlist:

“Bang Bang” by David Guetta
“One Last Cry” by Brian McKnight
“Fly Me to the Moon” by Frank Sinatra

Message to fans:

“Thank you so much guys for supporting me specially sa mga Jamesters. Thank you guys for following me ever since ‘Anak Ko Yan’ until now, I don’t know, everything has been amazing. So guys follow me on Twitter and Instagram @James23Wright and hopefully I won’t be very boring and you guys will keep loving me until the end, thank you guys so much!”

James Wright’s self-titled EP release is out on CDs nationwide at Astroplus, Astro Vision, Odyssey Music and Video, SM Music and Video and The Landmark record outlets nationwide and on digital format worldwide thru iTunes, Amazon & Spotify.

    OA ka namit! Manipis lang ang katawan nya pero kapag nagpalaki na yan ng katawan, sakto na din yon. Wag namang nega, hayaan nyo siya maging singer. Madami na din namang singer sa ABSCBN, give chance naman sa mga iba na gusto din kumanta.

  13. MGA INNGITTERRRAAAA!

  14. matalino siguro to. ang laki ng ulo. halos kalahati ng shoulder to shoulder breadth yong head diameter.
