Description
Live at St Pancras is the a new live album from Jamie Lenman taken from the super intimate, invite-only show he did around the launch of Devolver last year. As Jamie tells us:"We wanted to find some way to reward the first people to support the album campaign by pre-ordering, and we thought the best way was to do a super intimate, invite-only show somewhere with some new songs, some old songs, and then a quick Q&A to make it different and a bit special. The thing I like about the show is that you can tell from the recording that I was nervous at first, playing totally new songs in that serene atmosphere, and then things gradually warm up and by the end we're having a right old laugh, and I think that gives the record a unique shape that's very truthful and interesting.
"Featuring tracks from Devolver alongside cherished older songs including a cover of Cyndi Lauper's 'Money Changes Everything', it also includes a Q&A as well as all the in-between song chat kept in. As Jamie explains:"On my favourite live albums, like the ones Johnny Cash did at Folsom and St Quentin for instance, my favourite bits are always the in between chats where the artists communicates directly with the audience, and I think that's one of the main benefits of a live album over a studio album, you get that connection. I also love Steve Martin's comedy albums and Rollins' Think Tank, so even though the Q&A wasn't structured or scripted it's still reminiscent of these, almost like spoken word or standup in places"That's not all though. For collectors and super fans alike, the physical release comes on a limited double white LP along with a DVD featuring the live show and a whole lot of other exciting things including a new bonus track, 'Two Thousand Trees', which has been included as an extra track."The DVD is a whole other beast - we knew we wanted to put the film of the concert onto it so you could watch it if you want but we had all this extra space so straight away we started looking at other things that could go on there.
