Topher James

Topher James was faced with a difficult decision around 2007. Choose a stable corporate job, move up the ladder and risk losing all of his passion for art or choose a much more difficult path of being a professional musician. Easy to look back and say it was the right decision, but the path was not an easy one. A difficult decision to turn away from mainstream stability, but Topher's goal was to truly explore what it would be like not only to have music as a job, but as a way of life. With a common thread in the music he loved - a captivating melody, powerful emotional depth, and soulful essence - he is inspired by legendary artists like Sam Cooke and Donny Hathaway, as well as contemporary R&B and Gospel inspired talents such as Emily King, Leon Bridges, Yebba, Alicia Keys, and more. This show will take place in I Like It Like That. RESERVATIONS and TIPS are strongly encouraged for our FREE Shows! I Like It Like That is a 21+ room.
