James Blunt: Online Abuse, Trauma & Life in the Spotlight (E298)

James Blunt is an internationally acclaimed British singer-songwriter, best known for hits like "You're Beautiful." Before rising to fame in the music world, he served in the British Army, a chapter of his life that deeply influenced his artistic perspective.


In this episode, James candidly discusses the early struggles of his music career, revealing how he dealt with the harsh criticism and negativity that first came his way. He also touches on his time in the military, sharing his decision-making process behind joining the army and the invaluable leadership lessons he gained that continue to shape him today.


James opens up to Jake and Damian about his emotional challenges and how music became his outlet for self-expression. He recalls the inspiration behind his song dedicated to his father, revealing how songwriting became a way to articulate feelings he couldn't otherwise voice. He also discusses his friendship with the late Carrie Fisher and how her influence played a pivotal role in his acclaimed album, “Back To Bedlam”.


This episode is a heartfelt exploration of resilience, creativity, and the transformative power of music as a form of emotional expression.
