Webster has also been able to perform to crowds in places such as New Delhi, [13] and supported established Liverpool band Cast, but was disappointed at having to miss out on a Glastonbury Festival since it was postponed twice due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [14] The Liverpool Echo named Webster the 11th most-influential Merseysider in its 2020 Power List. [15] Lyrics from his song "Something's Gotta Give", "How can you tell me that this is where it's at / When all the clowns are calling the shots?", have been quoted on social media with people using the song to channel their frustration at politicians. [16] The next song and a personal favourite of mine is Living for Yesterday which is already one of Webster’s singles. It has an acoustic start with a slow tempo which takes a complete turn when an unsuspecting tempo change hits the listener taking away a sense of predictability that might be expected from this genre of music. With a chorus that is almost certainly going to be heard ringing around stadiums in the future, this catchy single ends perfectly by returning to the acoustic melodies heard at the beginning. If there’s something of the busker about Jamie Webster, it’s probably more by accident than design.

Recorded at the renowned Parr Street Studios, ‘We Get By’ is Jamie Webster’s long-awaited, supercharged debut full-length. Our would-be everyman’s also astute enough to understand that the whole thing is rigged against the common man, beginning a song cycle with the words of Living For Yesterday’s man-trap of avaricious consumerism, before offering the hedonism of Weekend In Paradise as the escape route from downpours, debt and drudgery.Jamie Webster tops the first Official Folk Albums Chart". officialcharts.com .

While we all may be inside hiding from the heat, Jamie Webster’s new album We Get By is sure to immediately transport you to a festival field that 2020 has harshly ripped from beneath our feet… I’m proud I’ve done this myself, that I’ve not had anyone in the industry do it for me.

But following this in the album is the other song battling for my top spot which is This Place. This song is filled with nostalgia and appreciation for your home town. It is a tribute to your place of origin no matter the listener. It has similar origins to Diamonds in the Mud by Gerry Cinnamon but without the specifics towards the certain place. Webster describes the city as his heart and it reminds the listener of the impact your home town can have on a person. If people in the industry did amplify my message, I know the working-class population would get behind me if they heard my songs. More people would believe they could change their circumstances, and that’s important.” Why do you think the industry is slow to support working class success stories like you, The Lottery Winners, The Reytons and Louis Dunford?

TRENDING

If it goes the way it can, it’ll be a gig for the ages. I’ve just played to 26,000 people at Liverpool Pier Head, but that show could be the biggest sense of community I’ve ever felt. It could be a night where 40,000 people feel like we’re making a change in the world, that we’re on the cusp of something special. That’s what I want. Well, that and for everyone to have a boss time singing and dancing.” Does it feel extra special that you’ve got this far with little support from the mainstream? After this long in power, how could anyone say the Tories are the answer? Literally any government that isn’t this one has to be the lesser of two evils. I’m not saying Keir Starmer is definitely the answer, but maybe we need to go with him to get Labour in. They could sort out the rest once they’re in.

Jamie Webster is a name that has become synonymous with the terraces of Anfield with his piercing anthems blasted through the streets of Liverpool on Matchday and his rendition of ‘Allez-Allez-Allez’ now a Reds phenomenon.

Down The Road’ is a surefire hit with a guitar pop sheen and ‘Living For Yesterday’ whips up an incisive, truthful dialogue about the tribulations of the labouring class, as Webster exhales chants like: “Spare a thought for the working man, has he got a say?” Sitting around the middle of the album is Somethings Gotta Give talking about the harsh realities of life. He speaks of the unfairness of life for the working class and the reality of dreams creating a melancholy feel which is also felt in Stop Living Blind and is a needed feature of his album.

We go: ‘That’ll be us when we’re older.’ Just when I was struggling for lyrics for that song, Rachel texted me a photo of a couple sharing a basket in Tesco. After the success ofJamie Webster’s debut album, We Get By, which landed a UK Official Albums Chart Top Ten berth, he releases his follow-up, Moments. One which will be destined for similar success, Moments is an exuberant listen from beginning to end.
