Nemone sits in and chats to Starsailor

Nemone sits in for Liz Kershaw and chats to James Walsh, frontman of Starsailor, who reformed in 2014 after a five-year hiatus.

Nemone chats to James Walsh, frontman of Starsailor who reformed last year after a 5 years hiatus.
The 4 piece formed in Wigan in 2000, and after acclaim from the NME they were the subject of a record company bidding war. They broke through with the single Good Souls in 2001. Their debut album Love Is Here reached number 2 later that year. The 2nd album Silence Is Easy reached the same position 2 years later. The 2 subsequent albums, 2005's On the Outside and 2009's All the Plans failed to replicate the early success, and the band went on hiatus in 2009. They reformed last year for a series of live performances and are releasing a best of album, Good Souls: The Greatest Hits.
