A multi-faceted musician with a strong Gospel background, James Cockerham is a gifted composer, arranger and orchestrator. In his hands, Rosamond and James Weldon Johnson’s Lift Every Voice and Sing, commonly called the “Negro National Anthem,” becomes an epic and cinematic journey from the Old World to the New, with rhythms from Africa to sounds of Jazz, R&B, Soul and more.
