Closing Hardwick Live 🎸🥁🕺🎹🎉

Under the Radar on the band's distinctive setlist choices: “Never fails to include deeper cuts, newer songs & whatever might take their fancy mid-concert. It is to guarantee that spark & frisson in their live performances. No one can accuse James of phoning it in.” They spoke to Tim ahead of the US dates, nice in-depth interview. We're down to the final two US shows now: San Diego is sold out, but there are still tickets available for the wonderful Greek Theatre in LA tomorrow.

Phenomenal views at the rooftop gig in New York 😍 We're into the final leg of the tour now: Portland, Reno, San Francisco (free festival!), San Diego, and the Greek in LA. | wearejames.com

Our friend Larion Stolk died yesterday. He taught us how to sing harmonies, especially on the last three albums. Had a big heart. He's all over ‘Nothing But Love’ and we send his wife and kids nothing but love. Last night's transcendent gig was inspired by him.

Jim tells Louderthanwar, “We are blessed to have an incredible fan base, who have always bought into what we’re all about. The power music has to unite people & create something memorable. That buzz you get off seeing the appreciation & participation is the adrenaline that gets you through. “It’s the best job in the world & I feel lucky. That’s what keeps us going as a live act. Whatever we play the fans are happy. They know with us you’ll get a surprise song you’re not expecting, or maybe not hear the big tune you banked on. Our long terms fans accept that. The understanding we have is incredible.”

Great half hour of music here from Isle of Wight Festival. Absolute Radio broadcast a good chunk of the set & you can listen to an abbreviated version online: Nothing But Love / Come Home / Many Faces / What's It All About / Laid. Those listening to the broadcast also got a stunning version of Leviathan, banging Heads, top Getting Away With It and Sit Down, wonder if they'll surface too… 🎶📻🎸

Our multi talented Mr Davies fearlessly ensuring the safe arrival of the band off the island last night, en route from Isle of Wight Festival to Heaton Park.

Happy 5th, La Petite Mort. (Already? Yup.)

“Great to be in Cornwall a great part of the country we don't get to often enough. Lovely vibes at The Great Estate and great reception despite 90dB volume limit. We ran out of time at the end, strict curfew.” says Andy Diagram Trumpet 🎺
