James Brown Is Annie

Pizza Express Live Holborn, WC1V 6LF , [Venue Details]

Scottish sextet, James Brown Is Annie, return to the PizzaExpress Live Holborn stage, to perform full-fat, calorie-laden, rhythm 'n' grooves for your listening pleasure.

Thursday,
16 Apr 2026
@8.00pm

With two albums produced by original Average White Band members, Molly Duncan and Hamish Stuart, the outfit have gained a BBC Radio Scotland 'Single Of The Week' as well as sharing stages with the likes of The Family Stone, Brand New Heavies and Average White Band.

Playing material from their anticipated third album, audiences can expect the funk, the whole funk, and nothing but the funk.

James Brown Is Annie (often abbreviated JBiA) are a Scottish funk-n-soul collective based in Edinburgh. They formed in a piano bar, rehearse next to a sex shop, and take their name from an Eddie Murphy Saturday Night Live sketch. Despite the name's playful nod, they are not a James Brown tribute act.

The group's first two albums were produced by original Average White Band members Malcolm 'Molly' Duncan and Hamish Stuart, respectively, their first single - Ask Your Doctor - written exclusively for the band by AWB's Alan Gorrie. Their second single, Get Up To Get Down, earned them a BBC Radio Scotland 'Single Of The Week.'
