Usually a snapshot of the past, James Morrison’s new ‘Greatest Hits’ album celebrates where he’s come from, where he’s now at, and what comes next. The album is out now and coincides with the 15th anniversary of James winning the BRIT Award for British Male Solo Artist.
The ‘Greatest Hits’ album is full of refreshed versions of the big moments and all-time favourites from James Morrison’s hugely successful back catalogue. Those songs – ‘Broken Strings’, ‘You Give Me Something’, ‘I Won’t Let You Go’ and more – are now presented closer in spirit to how you would hear them at a current live show. Their heart remains unchanged, but each song now flows with the tightness and groove from his seasoned band. And as James and his fans have all lived through so many of the experiences that he sings of, the tender rasp of his voice feels more relevant than ever.
What’s more, two brand new songs show that James continues to evolve as an artist. That’s particularly true of the album’s lead single ‘Who’s Gonna Love Me Now?’, which spent four weeks on Radio 2’s B-list, accumulated 1000 plays at UK radio, and hit a wealth of major playlists at Spotify (14 international New Music Fridays) and Apple Music (Breaking Pop, Feeling Good and Everyday Hits). He then performed his latest track ‘Don’t Mess With Love’ on ‘The Graham Norton Show’.
‘Greatest Hits’ is available to buy. His official store offers a range of signed items, bundles and merch including CDs, cassettes and lyric sheets.
Tonight will see James begin a week-long tour of solo acoustic shows hosted by record stores across the country. Next month will see him hit the road for a ‘Greatest Hits’ full band headline tour which includes a prestigious London show at the Palladium. The tour then goes to Europe from late April, while his summer schedule involves co-headlining Kew The Music with Will Young, hitting Wembley Stadium as special guest to Westlife, and performing at Blenheim Palace with David Gray. Please see the official website for a full list of shows and ticket details.
