JAMES DURBIN
James Durbin is an American singer, songwriter and guitarist from Santa Cruz, California, who finished in fourth place on the tenth season of American Idol. Durbin was eliminated in the Top 4 on season 10, but despite his elimination, he received a homecoming previously reserved for Top 3 contestants, the first time such an exception on the homecoming policy was made by the show. “Durbin Day” is to this day the largest public gathering of people in the history of Santa Cruz, CA. A whopping 30,000 people flocked to the stage at The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk to catch a glimpse of their hometown hero’s return.
James worked & performed alongside many incredible musicians including: Stevie Wonder, Bob Babbitt of The Funk Brothers, Don Was, Zakk Wylde, Sheryl Crow, Tom Jones, Mick Mars & Steel Panther to name a few. He appeared on the American Idol Season 10 finale, singing “Livin’ After Midnight” and “Breaking the Law” alongside British heavy metal legends Judas Priest.
