Cover feature: James Bay
This month, we sit down with James Bay - the biggest guitar-playing success of 2015 - to talk about songwriting, playing approach and his whirlwind rise to the top. Along the way, we discovered that James is quite the blues player, too, so we got him to show you his blues licks and his famous chord voicings.
