British singer-songwriter James Blunt returns to Australia in March 2018, bringing his The Afterlove Tour down under. With a Hunter Valley show at A Day On The Green, Bimbadgen set for Saturday, March 10th.
The chart-topping superstar will perform two special indoor shows in Sydney and Melbourne, as well appearing nationally for the first time ever at ‘a day on the green’ outdoor shows.
Currently on tour throughout North America with good friend Ed Sheeran, Blunt is looking forward to embarking on his own world tour and returning to Australia to play for his loyal Aussie fans:
“Australia has always been the most fun part of every world tour I’ve ever done, and the fans at the shows have always given me the warmest of welcomes. I can’t wait to get back.”
Blunt first captured the world’s attention in 2005 with his multi-platinum debut Back To Bedlam, featuring its history-making number one classic single ‘You’re Beautiful’. The British tunesmith has since become one of the most popular singer-songwriters of the modern era, with more than 20 million albums and 12 million singles sold worldwide. He has also been the recipient of a remarkable range of top honours, including five Grammy Award nominations, two BRIT Awards, two Ivor Novello Awards (honouring British music and songwriters), and a host of MTV Awards.
James Blunt won over a whole new legion of Australian fans during his stint as a judge on “The X Factor” in 2015, and earlier this year shot the video for single ‘Don’t Give Me Those Eyes’ at Sydney’s Warriewood Beach, while in the country for the TV Week Logie Awards.
Morgan Evans
Joining James at his Sydney and Melbourne headline shows is the newest member to the Warner Music Nashville/Warner Bros. Records family, Morgan Evans. Led by single ‘Kiss Somebody’, this undeniably charismatic Aussie singer/songwriter kicked off his career at just 13, winning 2016’s CMA Global Artist of the Year, and has already supported greats such as Alan Jackson, Taylor Swift and the Dixie Chicks, and is currently working on his forthcoming debut album alongside producer Chris DeStefano (Carrie Underwood, Brett Eldredge, Dan + Shay, Luke Bryan).
