James Bay is known for always wearing a wide-brimmed hat and has confessed his biggest fear when he's on stage is losing his trademark fashion accessory, something that almost happened at music festival Wild Life in Brighton, England. ''It was at Wild Life. Really, I just thought, 'I could get rid of this and just play and not worry about it', I could have just had like an 80s hair moment - like a wind machine, but from real wind. Then I thought about it blowing off mid-song, like a comedy moment with it blowing off in the wind, and I thought, 'I'll look really stupid.' '' The singer also admiited that another big fear he has while performing is that he'll forget what city he's playing in.
