GuitarJames Barber
James Barber spent his childhood years learning classical piano before moving to the guitar in his teens. James’ background as a guitarist is playing live music in pubs and clubs in original and covers bands in his native Queensland, Australia. This work has seen James play in places as varied as Brisbane, the Whitsunday Islands, Port Douglas and the Australian Outback as well as countless places in-between. A lifelong love of Queen’s music provided James the opportunity to join We Will Rock You Australia as an original band member. James remained part of the Australian production of We Will Rock You as it toured to Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and Sydney as well as two separate tours to Japan, playing in both Tokyo and Osaka. Currently, James has played over 800 We Will Rock You shows as a guitarist and he is very excited and proud to be invited to be a part of We Will Rock You as it tours the United Kingdom.
