JAMES BLUNT ANNOUNCES 2011 UK TOUR

Decrease Font Size Increase Font Size Text Size Print This Page

Whilst not everyone’s favourite, former soldier, James Blunt is on tour early next year. His new single “Stay The Night” is released on October 25, followed by his third album “Some Kind of Trouble” on November 8. The new album was produced by Steve Robson (with co production by Greg Kurstin and Eg White) and sees the five times Grammy nominee start another chapter in his musical career with a sense of freshness and spontaneity pervading the whole record.
 
However, much as he loves making new music, for Blunt the ultimate joy comes from playing the songs live and sharing them with an audience. “Put the album out and put me out on the road” he says. “Get me on tour and we’re going to have the time of our lives doing these songs”
