Arena date for singer James Blunt

With three world tours, four number one singles, five Grammy nods and seven whole years on the road under his belt, James has achieved sales of 17m albums and 20m singles worldwide.

The tour comes with the release of Blunt’s fourth album, ‘Moon Landing’, an album about getting back to basics and rediscovering the power of music to communicate emotion directly and honestly, without polish or complication.

The tour also promises to showcase the back catalogue of hits that propelled Blunt to stardom.

James said: “There’s just something romantic, old-school and lonely about the moon landings. A nostalgic memory of something huge that we can hardly believe we once achieved, and for some sad reason, can’t achieve again – like first love.”

Tickets go on sale at 9am on Friday 9th May priced at £42 and can be booked at www.capitalfmarena.com/online/jamesblunt, via 0843 373 3000 or in person at the arena box office.
