James Blunt Tickets

James Blunt swapped a career as a British Army officer for one of the biggest-selling debut albums in UK chart history, and two decades later he's still filling arenas.

His mix of pop, rock, and folk, paired with a sharp sense of humor between songs, has kept audiences coming back well beyond the "You're Beautiful" era.

If you know just the one hit, a full Blunt show tends to reveal a much deeper catalogue.

Artist Biography

Born James Hillier Blount on 22 February 1974 in Tidworth, Wiltshire, Blunt served six years in the British Army, reaching the rank of captain during a NATO deployment in the Kosovo War.

He left the military to pursue music full time, a decision that paid off almost immediately with the release of his debut album in 2004.

Back to Bedlam sold over 11 million copies worldwide and became the best-selling album of the 2000s in the UK.

Its breakout single, "You're Beautiful," spent six weeks at number one in the UK and topped charts in over a dozen other countries.

Blunt has since sold more than 20 million records worldwide and picked up two BRIT Awards, two MTV Video Music Awards, and two Ivor Novello Awards along the way.

His fourth album, Moon Landing, arrived in 2013 behind the folk-leaning lead single "Bonfire Heart."
