Alex James from Blur to Cheesemaker

Alex James of Blur has been talking to Mona Channet about his career and passions and much more...

From life as the legendary bassist of Blur to award-winning cheesemaker, wine producer, festival founder and now the driving force behind Britpop Classical, Alex shares the story behind one of this summer's biggest live music events. We also chat about why Britpop still resonates with generations of fans, how an orchestra transformed some of the UK's most iconic songs, and why he believes this show is simply "pure joy."

🎻 Britpop Classical comes to Dreamland, Margate on 24th July, bringing together the biggest Britpop anthems from Blur, Oasis, Pulp, Supergrass, The Verve, Radiohead and more, performed with a full live orchestra, band and special guests including Phil Daniels, Saffron (Republica) and more.

If you love the soundtrack of the '90s, you won't want to miss this conversation—or the show!
