James Blunt returns with his breath-taking sophomore album release ‘All The Lost Souls’. Recorded and mixed in LA with ‘Back To Bedlam’ producer Tom Rothrock, the 10-song cycle about life – and death – shows tremendous growth from ‘Back to Bedlam’.

Musically, the album draws much of its inspiration from great artists of the ‘70s: Fleetwood Mac, Don McLean, Elton John.

The album opens with the layered, rollicking lead single ‘1973’, a nostalgic look back at sharing great times with friends. Songs such as ‘One of the Brightest Stars’ and ‘Annie’ deal with the vagaries and distortions that fame can bring. ‘Carry You Home’ and ‘I’ll Take Everything’ tackle our fragile mortality, while ‘I Really Want You’ and ‘Same Mistake’ showcase Blunt at his most vulnerable.

In the nearly three years since Blunt released his debut album, ‘Back to Bedlam’, it has sold 11 million worldwide, 8 x platinum sales in Australia, # 1 in 18 countries and an incredible 12 weeks at #1 on the ARIA Album Chart.

A short list of his accomplishments includes being nominated for five Grammys, landing the first No. 1 single in the U.S. (‘You’re Beautiful’) by a British act since Elton John’s ‘Candle in the Wind’ and winning two MTV Awards and two Brit Awards.
