Greylan James is the product of a young man’s hard work and experience, wrapped up in an original country song. 

Raised just north of Knoxville, Tennessee, Greylan knew that he was meant to be a musician at a young age. By the time he turned double digits, he was frequently performing at barn dances, local restaurants, and bars.

He started writing songs as an early teen and began visiting Nashville with his family in hopes of a future career in Country music. He finally made the move after being ranked one of the top 100 guitarists under 21 by Guitar Center and appearing on Season 4 of NBC’s The Voice. 

After earning a few more years of experience diligently writing in Music City, Greylan signed with Universal Music Publishing Group. He has earned songwriting credits on major records such as the smash hit “Happy Does” by Kenny Chesney, “If That Ain’t God” by Chris Young, and “Real Friends” by Chris Janson featuring Blake Shelton. 

Now at age 25, Greylan has written many more cuts that are set for release, and his writer career is on the rise. He is also pursuing his artist career, releasing songs that he has written and produced for his own project. Demonstration is set to release in Spring 2021.
