James Blunt the multi-platinum artist is making his way to India for the very first time this April.  He is touring for his Afterlove Tour, which is his fifth studio album. The British legend has  worked with a wide range of talent when writing and recording ‘The Afterlove’ including Ed Sheeran, Ryan Tedder, Amy Wadge, Johnny McDaid, Stephan Moccio and MoZella. Well, if you don’t know,  James has served the Army before getting into music.

Blunt’s debut album, Back to Bedlam, and its hit single, You’re Beautiful, were hugely successful — the single hit number one in over a dozen countries, and sold over ten million copies worldwide. Blunt toured for much of 2005 and 2006, then released the two-disc “odds and sods” CD/DVD Chasing Time: The Bedlam Sessions in 2006. He had been writing songs while on the road, and brought Back to Bedlam producer Tom Rothrock in again to record.
