JAMES BLUNT

James Blunt is a British singer-songwriter hailing from Hampshire, England, whose 2005 album Back to Bedlam became the biggest selling album of all time by a British male solo artist and spent 10 weeks at Number 1 on the Official Albums Chart. All of Blunt's album releases have made it into the Top 10 of the Official Albums Chart.

In 2024 to mark the 20th anniversary of his debut album, James Blunt pledged to change his name to a name of the British public's choosing, fans voted for the name Blunty McBluntface and followed his exploits closely online as he prepared for the moment of truth on 18 October. The Back To Bedlam anniversary edition landed at Number 7, while James and his family were spared of an awkward rebrand.
