BBC Radio 2 - Simon Mayo Drivetime, With James Blunt

James Blunt joins Simon in the studio to talk music, fame and, most probably, social media

James Blunt joins Simon in the studio to talk about the latest release from his album, Moon Landing. Plus, sport, business, travel updates and rather wonderful music.

James Blunt, singer-songwriter, musician and former army captain, joins Simon in the studio to talk about the latest release from his fourth album 'Moon Landing'. He rose to prominence in 2004 with the release of his debut studio album Back to Bedlam, before achieving worldwide fame with the singles "You're Beautiful" and "Goodbye My Lover". The album sold over 11 million copies worldwide, topping the UK Albums Chart and peaking at number two in the United States. Always armed with a great sense of humour his visit to Radio 2 towers should be fun!

Matt has the sport, Rebecca provides the business news, and Sally Traffic delivers the all-important travel updates. Plus a brand new confession for the gang to mull over, and some rather wonderful music in the form of themed oldies, chosen by Radio 2 listeners.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
