Review: David Brown @ Even The Stars
“It is inevitably two old favourites that bring the night to an end. Come Home brings back memories of student discos to large parts of the fifteen thousand crowd. Laid sends them even wilder as the final farewell to a tour where James both stuck to their guns with their new record as well as rolling out their biggest hits.”

Review: Francis Nash @ The Upcoming
“Yet, the truly spine-tingling moments come when the band, backed by members of the utterly glorious Manchester Inspirational Voices Gospel Choir, showcase their musical prowess to its full splendour. As such, tonight’s musical glory is at its most inspiring on Sound, main set closer Sometimes [Lester Pigott] and encore opener Way Over Your Head, one of the standout tracks from Yummy proving that talent has forged their richly deserved 40 years of success more than just 90s appeal.”

Review: David Brown @ Even The Stars
“The buzz in the room is electric as the lights go up. It’s rare for James to play a show this small these days, their June 2024 show is at the mammoth O2, 10 times the size of this. They make those arenas feel intimate, but tonight you could see the whites in their eyes, smell the intensity of the performance and revel in the fact that it could all coming crashing down in an instant. The song choice might have been more straight-forward than usual, but this band is all about the delivery of them. And that was as unpredictably unpredictable as ever.”

Review: Scott Colothan @ Hello Rayo
“Headlined by indie icons James with very special guests The Snuts, all 2,000 tickets to the event sold out within minutes of going on sale in early September.”

Review: David Brown @ Even The Stars
“James feel like they’re on a roll right now, there’s an on-stage energy and creative tension that makes them thrive. They’re ready to take risks but also understand the need to give everybody something to walk out the door with, mixing the known with less-known, confident in the latter to win the crowd over. From the likes of Johnny Yen and Hymn From A Village through to Isabella and Beautiful Beaches, they’ve discovered an anti-ageing serum that all of us in the crowd would love to bottle and apply.”

Review: Neil Dowden @ Music OMH
“From their 1990 breakthrough baggy album Gold Mother, Come Home has the crowd singing along as does their biggest hit Sit Down, with Booth conducting everyone in an extended a capella chorus. He dedicates it to the memory of their former collaborator Sinead O’Connor, paying tribute to her whistleblowing in particular. Booth, who has entertained with frenzied whirling dervish dancing and constantly engaged closely with the audience at the front, goes one step further during Getting Away With It (All Messed Up) as he surfs on the crowd. James close with the gospel-like Sometimes with the chorus “Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul” bringing everyone together at the end of the evening.”

Review: Andrew Perry @ The Telegraph
“If pop’s history books were to be believed, James should really have been the support, not the headliners, on this sunny evening in Crystal Palace Park…”
