HE'S back in Cardiff to pull on heartstrings again.
James Blunt, the former soldier turned pop star - who walked straight into the hearts of people all around the world with debut single You're Beautiful in 2004 - will be performing in Cardiff's Motorpoint Arena on Friday, February 21.
The tour is in support of last October's release of his sixth studio album Once Upon A Mind.
The record sees him return to his classic style of writing hits that tug on the heartstrings and cement themselves in the mind.
First single from the record, Cold, and the poignant ballad Monsters stand out as potential modern hits.
