James Morrison

James Morrison takes over Eventim Apollo in London on 4 June 2026 with the grainy, soul-steeped voice that has anchored his songs since the mid-2000s. Raised between Rugby, Cornwall and Derby’s open mics, he forged a sound at the crossroads of soul, pop rock and acoustic folk. From Undiscovered (2006) and Songs for You, Truths for Me (2008) to The Awakening (2011), Higher Than Here (2015) and You’re Stronger Than You Know (2019), his catalogue moves between intimate ballads, steady mid-tempos and R&B-tinged tracks, carried by guitar, piano and upfront vocals. On stage, Morrison keeps things direct and melodic, with room for stripped intros, tight grooves and sing-along hooks. The set draws across his albums and the collaborations that marked his path with artists like Nelly Furtado, Jason Mraz, Jessie J and Joss Stone, reflecting a songwriter who cut his teeth in pubs and street performances before stepping into bigger rooms, and who still favors clarity in the songwriting and a close connection with the audience.
