Review: David Brown @ Even The Stars

“An outdoor orchestral show with such a challenging setlist is a risk, but one that you’d expect James to take and actively embrace confident in their ability to take most of the audience with them. There was a real sense of joy up on stage, Tim in particular totally in the moment, wandering the stage, encouraging one minute, standing in awe the next. It was a perfect way to sign off the 2023-24 round of orchestra shows.”

Review: Rachel Smith @ Manchester Evening News

“Adding a full orchestra and a gospel choir was bound to ramp up the theatrics. Set against the backdrop of Lytham Green, with its iconic windmill, and the sun setting in the background, the performance went on a journey from the band’s back catalogue, peppered with singalong classics and singles from their newly released album Yummy.”

Review: Laura Dean @ God Is In The TV Zine

“After experiencing the beauty of the band’s orchestral shows last year, we were initially unsure if and how they would translate to an outdoor setting. However, James proved their unwavering prowess once again with a headline set at Lytham Festival that was utterly sublime. Their versatility shone brightly as they delivered another performance of unparalleled beauty.”

Review: Natalie Royle @ Louder Than War

“After attending last years orchestral tour and experiencing the stillness and emotion created in the intimate venues, I was concerned about how this would translate in an outdoor festival atmosphere and also how good the sound quality would be. I needn’t have worried. The sound quality is perfect, the visuals more stunning than I could have ever imagined, and the whole performance feels just as intimate and special as any show I’ve seen previously. It’s majestic and all consuming, the energy and spontaneity that James bring to their performances unlike anything I’ve witnessed with any other act and I feel very grateful to be here tonight to witness it.”

Review: Ric Brook @ RGM

“Its now time for the encore that isn’t as it would take a lot of time for everyone to leave and return and typically James they’ll already be overrunning. Sit Down “starts” it off, suppose there’d be a riot if it didn’t appear at some point and the crowd duly sing along. Beautiful Beaches makes an apt appearance given the venue tonight and the night is finished with the glorious and true James anthem Getting Away With it (All Messed Up).”
