James Blunt’s story is by no means a typical biography of a singer and author. He studied technology of aero-cosmic machinery and sociology at the university, and then served in Kosovo with a gun in one hand and guitar – in another. Blunt converted his quite wide experience into a breathtaking debut album, full of songs to be sung by the whole world very soon.

His album “Back to Bedlam” enhanced the prestige of the British Armed Forces better than any TV commercial.
