Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival reaches its final day in the Scottish Highlands with James leading a programme built around indie history, pop hooks and community atmosphere. The wider weekend has included The Human League, Callum Beattie, Mika, Razorlight, Rizzle Kicks, Kula Shaker, Brooke Combe, Lloyd Cole and The Scratch.
Belladrum has long distinguished itself from larger corporate festivals through its family-friendly character, Highland setting and willingness to place several generations of music beside one another. James return as one of the festival’s most requested acts, bringing four decades of anthems into a field where choruses continue late into the night.
