Search - James :: The Morning After The Night Before

JAMES have released 10 studio albums, sold more than 12 million albums worldwide, and have had twenty U.K. Top 40 singles. The U.K.-based band are best known in the U.S. for their Brian Eno-produced 1993 album Laid, which resulted in the huge modern rock hit singles "Laid" which went to #3 and "Say Something" (#19) resulting in a top spot on the Billboard 100 Chart and a gold album. Now, JAMES are set to release a two-CD set, The Morning After The Night Before, on September 14 via UMe and embark on an 18-date U.S. tour, their first since the release of 2008's Hey Ma. The tour is set to kick off on September 20 in Ft. Lauderdale, FL, and wraps in Los Angeles, CA, on October 13 at the Music Box Theater. The Night Before takes James' knack for uplifting songs about insecurity, disaffection and mental illness to a new level, and The Morning After has an intuitive, low-key "campfire" feel featuring some of the saddest, darkest lyrics Tim Booth has ever come up with. James are: Tim Booth (singer), Jim Glennie (bass), Larry Gott (guitars), Saul Davies (guitar, violin), Mark Hunter (keyboards), David Baynton-Power (drums) and Andy Diagram (trumpet).
