Language is an imperfect tool of communication, but Copeland James is trying to bridge the gap. Through music, this 23-year-old alternative folk artist from Bloomington, IN explores the space between what we want to say and what ends up coming out. 
 Earnest without being naïve, Copeland James ponders the complexity of loving deeply — and not just romantically — while knowing this puts their heart at risk. Their wistful melodies, nostalgic piano, and soaring string accompaniments complement introspective lyrics at every turn. Through music, James transcends the shortcomings of spoken language, articulating nuance with their elegant yet unassuming mezzo-soprano. Copeland’s music is influenced by their classical training, which shines through in bright piano lines, unexpected harmonies, and delightfully crunchy chord progressions. With clever lyrics and a pared-down chamber pop production style, their music reflects the raw allures and perils of coming of age.
