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] I’m not going to comment on the antisemitism claims around Jeremy Corbyn. What’s definite is how he got so many young people onside. For the first time in my generation, a leader was speaking the truth. I’m sure Starmer is a nice guy, but as a Labour leader representing young people having to live through this shitshow of a government, he’s just not taking any fight to the Tories.” Jamie Webster secures No.1 in inaugural Official Folk Albums Chart | Talent".

The first song on the album is Down The Road, it gives you a clear impression of the style of music that Webster is going to grace the listener with through this album.

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. A former electrician who initially sang cover versions in local pubs in Liverpool city centre. [1] [2] In October 2020, his debut album We Get By, released on Modern Sky UK, reached a peak of number 6 on the UK Albums Chart, [3] and he became the inaugural number-one artist in the newly formed UK Official Folk Album Charts, ahead of Laura Marling, Kate Rusby, and Levellers. Also in October 2020, Boss, a live album of Webster singing football songs, charted in the folk chart top 10. [4] [5] I’m proud I’ve done this myself, that I’ve not had anyone in the industry do it for me. I’m confident I’d clean up if I did. Relativity is a key strength in Webster’s armoury and this number showcases that sentiment for all to see.
