June 17th, 2025 by Kim Scirotto
If you had the chance to see the infamous comedic movie “American Pie,” you have heard the catchy song “Laid” by the band James being played at the end of movie.
Fans who want to relive the nostalgia of the ’90s and enjoy this epic group are in for a treat with their announcement of their North American leg of their “Laid” tour!
The upcoming shows will consist of material from their album “Laid” plus singles and deep cuts!
Californians will have three different chances to see them: Los Angeles on September 27th at The Bellwether, Dana Point on September 28th at Ohana Fest, and San Francisco on September 30th.

James first began their impressive musical career in Manchester in 1982 with the original lineup consisting of lead singer Tim Booth, Jim Glennie on bass, Paul Gilbertson on guitar, and Gavan Whelan on drums.
While the group lineup was not born of frustration, it has changed over the years, both Tim Booth and Jim Glennie have remained as constant members. During the ’80s, the rock group shared the stage with renowned British acts such as New Order and The Smiths.
It was not until the ’90s that James gained popularity with four top 10 singles on the UK charts, and international fame from “Laid.”
Their other top three hits were the anthemic “Sit Down,” the emotive “Come Home,” and the vibrant “She’s a Star.”
With the group still putting on an impressive show to this day, fans will be in for a treat.
Tickets go on sale this week, so make sure to get them while they last!
