We’re pretty sure we didn’t spot Uncle Bryn himself in the audience sadly but maybe if James Blunt appeared during the GlastonBARRY Festival, Bryn would be first in line for tickets.
On tour with James Blunt was Lucy Spraggan. You might remember her from The XFactor singing about Tea and Toast. The funny thing about her performing alongside Blunt is that she tried to reach out to his management a few years ago about touring with him and assumed she’d been ghosted. It was only recently that Blunt found that email in his spam so brought her along on tour with him!
The audience for James Blunt all sat in anticipation as the sarcastic comedic artist came onto stage opening with Beside You. The third song on his setlist would’ve had Uncle Bryn crying with enjoyment as he started singing Wisemen. He played a few classic tracks that filled the room with nostalgia such as Goodbye My Lover and You’re Beautiful and ended the night with 1973.
James Blunt is continuing to tour the world for the rest of the year but so far there are no announced plans for any more UK shows yet!
