Diving deep into all things ’90s… Stand-up comic, actor, prolific podcaster, 5 Live fixture and proud ’90s kid Elis James has led a hectic life, from playing in indie bands in his mum’s wedding dress to selling out the London Palladium. Today he’s here to talk about his ’90s – from his burgeoning obsession with music and the music press as a teenager to the real (read: not so great) fashion of the era, to the thrill of seeing Welsh bands like the Super Furry Animals and Gorky's Zygotic Mynci make it outside of Wales while still proudly singing in Welsh. And of course he couldn’t not mention the Oasis reunion.
