Alex James has admitted that Radiohead reduce him to tears and that revisiting Blur’s biggest hits has left him feeling emotional as he launches his new Britpop Classical tour.
The bassist – now also known for his cheese and wine ventures – is touring his orchestral celebration of ’90s Britpop this month. The show debuted at his Big Feastival last summer, and he said the reaction was so strong that Live Nation immediately urged him to take it on the road.
