James Blake at Cadillac Palace Theater

James Blake plays the Cadillac Palace Theater on October 9th. Make sure to get your tickets!

With the success James Blake has found over the years, you’d think he’d be a little older. He’s an accomplished musician at 28 with multiple accolades, including the prestigious Mercury Prize in 2013. His rise to fame started with his trio of dubstep inspired EPs The Bells Sketch, CMYK, and Klavierwerke in 2010. After receiving recognition from the UK press his self-titled debut album came the following year.

He grew popular outside the UK with the release of his second album, Overgrown. The Colour in Anything is his latest album giving him another hit. It reached the top spot on the US Dance/Electronic albums chart. It’s clear Blake has the gift to connect with people around the world.
