    James William Somerville is a Scottish pop singer and songwriter. He sang in the 1980s with the pop groups Bronski Beat and The Communards, and has also had a solo career. He is known in particular for his powerful and soulful countertenor/falsetto singing voice. He is openly gay and many of his songs reflect this such as “Smalltown Boy”. In 1983, Somerville co-founded the synthpop group Bronski Beat, which proceeded to have several hits in the British charts. Their biggest hit was “Smalltown Boy” which reached No. 3 in the UK charts. In the music video Somerville played the song’s titular character who leaves his hostile hometown for the friendlier city. This was a reflection of Somerville’s own experience when he came to London in about 1980, and was able to enjoy the gay scene and also attend the London Gay Teenage Group. Somerville left Bronski Beat in 1985 and formed The Communards with classically trained pianist Richard Coles . They had several hits, including a cover version of Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes’ “Don’t Leave Me This Way,” which spent four weeks at No. 1 in the UK charts and became the biggest-selling single of 1986 in the UK. He also sang backing vocals on the Fine Young Cannibals’ version of “Suspicious Minds”, which was a UK Top 10 hit.
