Nell James is a 17-year-old multi-instrumentalist and composer. She plays and records all the instruments in her bedroom studio, performing vocals, guitar, bass, drums, keys and various other instruments. Nell has just released an album called "Tempus". It features a selection of all-original compositions loosely tied around the theme of time. Stylistically, the songs show some influence from '70s progressive rock heroes Yes, Gentle Giant and Nektar, as well as a dash of favorite indie rock giants the Flaming Lips.

Lyrics
Cast away, oh cast away Along the rocky coast What will you miss the most Now that you’re never going home Fill the space, oh fill the space With thoughts and revelations As you claim your life’s station Now that you’ll always be alone Solitude is eternal The company of your mind The endless days of searching And living with what you find It sounds such a tragic place to be But it has a certain beauty The cavernous space inside This world which we reside Blowing through, oh blowing through The wind, it scatters all Brown leaves in the fall And the murmur of our past Flickering, oh flickering A star wavers in the dark It’s a brief but beautiful mark It’s the heart that you know best It’s not to get you down Chin up, feel proud You’re a member of the human race It may not be glamorous, but it is your place This is your face, so take it with grace All those feelings that confuse And all the love that you lose It’s a part of this human race It may not be easy, but it is your fate This is your state, so don’t be late
