The crowd are almost unsure how to react, there’s a bit of ill-advised clapping which threatens to spoil the song, but it quickly subsides and is generally reserved for appropriate moments in the set.

He speaks in reverential terms of his love for James and it seems a pity that he’s still not producing new music on the basis of tonight’s set. His own songs show as a musician he stands far above the usual talent show crowd with their songwriting teams. He plays six songs including an acoustic cover of James’ 1997 Whiplash album track Play Dead. Tonight is the first time he’s been on stage for four years, a fact he wanted to hide to avoid showing nerves, but Saul tells us this in his introduction. Since then, he released an album, but has become better known as a BAFTA award winning animator, and, most recently, produced the video for James’ Moving On single that has won several award nominations already.

Taking a break from recording sessions, a stripped-down five-piece James played an intimate one-hour show to 150 lucky people at the Tolbooth in Stirling.
