James

With over 25 million albums sold over a longstanding career, James are amongst the most commercially and artistically successful alternative rock bands of their era. Their 40th anniversary in 2023 was celebrated with orchestral reworkings via Be Opened By The Wonderful – but this was far from a full stop. James released their 18th album Yummy on 12 April 2024, which reached #1 in the UK Albums Chart – their first studio album to do so. One of their most prescient releases, Yummy deals with politics, AI, and conspiracy theories, and documents the creative process of a band who continues to evolve and defy expectations.

This year, the band will release the album and Blu-ray, James: Live at The Acropolis, on May 2, which was recorded on July 10, 2023 at the iconic Odeon of Herodes Atticus in Athens. They will also embark on a summer of live shows across the UK, Spain, Portugal, and beyond.
