James William Marriott (born 7 July 1997) is an English musician, YouTuber and Twitch streamer. Born in Switzerland, Marriott grew up in Buckinghamshire, England and first became interested in music after attending an ABBA tribute concert as a child. After uploading videos of his instrumental acoustic music, he attracted attention after diversifying into caustic YouTube commentary videos and Twitch livestreams. A debut single, "Slow Down", was released in May 2020, followed by the extended plays (EPs) No Left Brain and Bitter Tongues. He released his debut album Are We There Yet? in 2023, which charted at number 17 on the UK Albums Chart. Marriott cites Foals and The Strokes as major influences, and his music is generally described as indie rock.
