JAMES has shared one more song from his upcoming new album, YUMMY. Following the first single, “Is This Love”, and current single, “Our World”, the new song, LIFE'S A FUCKING MIRACLE, is now available on all platforms, with the album due out on April 12 via Virgin Music.
Speaking of LAFM, singer Tim Booth says: “The most uplifting song on the album. A celebration of inclusion because, even with all the dark shit going on in the world that drags us into a swamp of fear and negativity, life is a fucking miracle.”
James recently announced an exclusive warm-up show at the O2 Academy Bournemouth ahead of his biggest UK stadium tour in June. The tour includes the new Co-op Live Arena in Manchester and culminates at The O2 in London, the first time the band has played a 20,000-capacity venue. The tour is followed by several orchestral performances and festival appearances throughout the summer.
