Looking Back

Route 33 Feat. Alex James

Apollo

WE SAY

Route 33 comprises of Kevin J Ryan & Glenn Scott, the people behind the reputable production company RiotAct. Alex James is a singer/songwriter (not the Blur bassist) who provides the quality vocal here. Tong has supported this on R1 since late last year. Now with Apollo behind it, and its recent addition to R1 and Galaxy Network's playlists, its crossover journey is almost complete. Interest should also rise in Alex James, who has just signed for publishing with BMG. JF
