Biography
A week after leaving the Army, James had secured himself a manager. Three weeks later a publishing deal was inked and he soon began courting the attention of Linda Perry. Five minutes after his appearance at the South By Southwest Music Conference, Linda Perry offered him a record deal with her Custard Records label and promptly whisked James off to Los Angeles to record the album. Perry also produced the last song on the album, No Bravery'. As Custard entered into negotiations for a distribution deal in America, the album was brought to the attention of Korda Marshall, who then proceeded to bring James Blunt into the Atlantic Records family
