James Chance - nascido James Siegried a 20 de abril de 1953, em Milwaukee, Wisconsin - foi um saxofonista e vocalista avant-garde / funk / punk que é reconhecido como um dos pais fundadores do movimento experimental no wave. Depois de estudar jazz no Conservatório de Música de Wisconsin, juntou-se a uma banda chamada Death. Após o falecimento do vocalista dos Death, James Chance decidiu tentar a sua sorte em Nova Iorque. Aí, formou vários grupos que misturavam um espírito punk inicial com o free jazz e o funk. Em 1976, fundou Teenage Jesus and The Jerks com Lydia Lunch, antes de sair e formar a sua própria banda, James Chance and The Contortions, em 1977. Os seus controversos espectáculos ao vivo granjearam-lhe uma reputação em Nova Iorque e chamaram a atenção do icónico músico e produtor Brian Eno, que o incluiu na compilação no wave No New York, de 1978 . No ano seguinte, James Chance and The Contortions lançou o seu álbum de estreia, Buy, com grande sucesso. Nesse mesmo ano, lançou Off White, um álbum de discoteca avant-garde sob o nome da banda James White and The Blacks. A sua agente e parceira Anya Phillips faleceu em 1981, o que coincidiu com o declínio da popularidade do movimento no wave. Após o lançamento de um segundo álbum de James White and The Blacks - Sax Maniac (1982) - James Chance começou a retirar-se da indústria musical. Lançou o álbum James White's Flaming Demonics em 1983 e o álbum japonês Melt Yourself Down (o terceiro álbum de James White and The Blacks) em 1986. Nas três décadas seguintes, várias editoras lançaram gravações de arquivo ao vivo de James Chance and The Contortions. Ele formou uma nova versão da banda e lançou Incorrigible! em 2012. James Chance morreu de doença gastrointestinal em 18 de junho de 2024. Ele tinha 71 anos de idade.
