LOS ANGELES, February 18th, 2015 – Multi-platinum songwriter and R&B/Pop artist Keith James premieres the official music video for his debut single ‘Not My Day’ – and to celebrate the release, the hit-maker is awarding live private performances to 10 lucky fans in 10 different cities across the country.

Produced by multi-platinum producer Mick Schultz, “Not My Day” is a captivating mix of feel-good Pop, Hip-Hop, and R&B/Soul, combining an unlikely blend of classical strings, uplifting dance beats, and catchy lyrics that captures the essence of James’s musical style. The music video for this bliss-inducing single is a dance ensemble love story with moving sets, animation and a perfectly choreographed dance sequence performed by characters who all play a role in ruining James’s day. “We tried to capture the idea that life shouldn’t be taken so seriously and to appreciate the moment and just keep on keeping on,” says Danny Erb, the director of the music video.

Launching in tandem with the premiere, Keith’s “Lucky Fans Tour” Sweepstakes offers the chance for fans to win one of 10 performances for themselves and their guests at the private venue of their choice.  Fans who follow @WhoIsKeithJames on social media may enter the sweepstakes via one of the following two options:

1. Posting a screenshot on Twitter or Instagram showing the download of “Not My Day” on iTunes with #NotMyDaySong

1. Retweeting the official sweepstakes image on Twitter or sharing it on Instagram using #NotMyDaySong and tagging two friends.

Official rules for the “Lucky Fans Tour” Sweepstakes are available at www.whoiskeithjames.com/lucky.

Keith James was born and raised in one of South Side Chicago’s most dangerous neighborhoods and began performing musically at the tender age of nine. His distinctive blend of Pop, Hip-Hop, and R&B has led to writing multiple songs for top-selling artists including Jeremih and Nicki Minaj. Upon completing “Not My Day,” James and Schultz realized that the electric, upbeat song was something special. “Sometimes when a unique song comes along it only makes sense to have the original writer sing it,” says Schultz. “This is Keith’s song!”

Supporting the launch of his debut single by connecting directly with his fans is typical of the warmth and positive energy for which James is known. “Keith is one of the nicest people I have ever met and has a huge personality that I am glad we could bring out on screen,” explains the music video director.
