Multi-GRAMMY nominated and multi-platinum British singer/songwriter James Blunt will release his sixth studio album Once Upon A Mind on October 25th featuring the new single “Coldâ€. After flirting with electronica on his last album, Blunt returns to what he does best on Once Upon A Mind – writing classic songs that touch both the heart and the head. Once Upon A Mind sees Blunt collaborating with a variety of producers resulting in a freshness that resonates throughout the eleven-song collection, with highlights including the poignant ballad “Monsters,†pop-infused “5 Miles†and the country tinged “Halfway.† “I think this is the most honest album I have ever made†said Blunt. “’Back To Bedlam’ was similar in that I had been writing those songs for a while about my life experiences at that time, and they came together on my debut. And every song on this album represents something that I’m currently going through or have recently experienced. It’s a very personal record, and I’m proud I can share it.â€
