The Bright-Eyed Sky is a Welsh folk/pop band formed in Swansea by solo artist Thom James in 2008, but whose existence and histroy stretches back as far as 2003. The Bright-Eyed Sky (special emphasis placed on the hyphen usage in the artist name as it is not to be confused with The Bright Eyed Sky, an artist of similar title) - also referred to as TBES - is currently based near Milford Haven, Pembrokshire and came about after singer/songwriter James left to attend college in Swansea in 2003, leaving behind the band he and close friends had formed in school, originally as a side project to his other commitments. However, with more time spent away from band-mates, more and more songs started to be written that were not considered as 'band material' and eventually more focus was placed on writing acoustic, folk-rock and pop songs as a solo artist. Preferring a pseudonym to the use of his real name, James has brought his solo self through various monikers such as Louisiana Radio Club, The Small Hours and Scarfboy, until, after all these various name changes, he settled on The Bright-Eyed Sky.
