Kobalt has joined forces with 3 Ring Circus Music to sign singer-songwriter Adam James. The worldwide admin agreement includes James’ future works.

Kobalt General Manager, Nashville, Jesse Willoughby said, “We are really excited to be working with Adam, Jeffrey and Darrell. Adam is an incredible talent and has partnered with a great team. We look forward to the opportunity to help grow both Adam and 3 Ring Circus. Welcome to the Kobalt family!”

James was raised in central Illinois, and has been working with songwriter-publisher Jeffrey Steele and his 3 Ring Circus Music since 2014. James’ credits including “Roses and a Time Machine,” from Dierks Bentley’s Black album.

“We are really looking forward to working together with Kobalt on this next step in Adam’s journey,” Steele said.

“Adam is an extremely gifted songwriter with a respect for the past, present and future of country music,” said Darrell Franklin, GM, 3 Ring Circus. “The music he is writing is really beginning to take him to the next level and is quickly making him a rising star in the songwriting community. We are excited to continue our relationship with Adam in this next chapter.”
