Kevin Francis James (born December 3, 1975 in Edinburgh) is a Scottish professional footballer. He currently plays for St. Johnstone, and is the club's captain.

James began his career at Falkirk in 1993, making 48 appearances and scoring nine goals in his six years with the Bairns.

In 1999, James moved to one of his hometown clubs, Hearts, for whom he only made 14 appearances in two years. In 2001, he was loaned out to Morton and Airdrieonians. He joined the latter on a permanent basis later that year.

After only six months in Lanarkshire, James returned to his first club, Falkirk, with whom he went on to make over 50 appearances and scored six goals in three years.

James joined St. Johnstone just prior to the 2005/06 season. He scored his first goal for the club on October 15, 2005, in a 3-1 win over Brechin City at McDiarmid Park.[1]

In April 2007, James was one of three St. Johnstone players named in the SPFA's Scottish Division One "Team of the Year", voted for by the managers.[2]
