It’s been twenty years since The Bluetones’ debut, Expecting to Fly, knocked Oasis from the top of the charts and launched the band’s career.
Thirteen hit singles, three top ten albums and three solo albums down the line and Morriss makes a charismatic frontman for the band, an affable and entertaining solo artist.
“Symbolic of Morriss’ style as a solo performer; a serious love of music and song tempered with jocularity. It makes for a set of easy-going acoustic songs and a camaraderie that brings a warmth to the winter that gathers around us. The need for nostalgia is ever-present but not given into easily, and yet the audience find themselves satiated by a set of songs from his solo albums interspersed with enough Bluetones tunes to keep the old guard interested. All of it is delivered with a huge dose of humour; the affable charm of Morriss as a frontman.” Louder Than War
