James Blunt

At the end of 2021, James Blunt released a greatest hits album. "Or as I like to call it — The Greatest Hit And Songs I Wish You'd Heard," he says, which, as anyone who follows his X/Twitter account will tell you, is a very James Blunt thing to say: it's self-deprecati......More

At the end of 2021, James Blunt released a greatest hits album. "Or as I like to call it — The Greatest Hit And Songs I Wish You'd Heard," he says, which, as anyone who follows his X/Twitter account will tell you, is a very James Blunt thing to say: it's self-deprecating, funny, and predicated on the recurrent gag that the only James Blunt song anyone knows or cares about is his multi-platinum 2005 single 'You're Beautiful.' In fact, the greatest hits album (it was called The Stars Beneath My Feet, for the avoidance of doubt) rounded up the first 17 years of a career that feels extraordinary by anyone's standards. He was an artist who appeared to come out of nowhere — the first gig James Blunt ever attended was the first gig James Blunt ever performed, shortly after leaving the army in 2002 — and immediately released the biggest-selling album of the decade: Back To Bedlam shifted over 12 million copies. James later released a further succession of hit albums, every one of them a Top Ten hit, and — contrary to the recurrent gag about 'You're Beautiful' — a brace of huge singles: '1973,' 'Stay The Night' and 'Bonfire Heart.' He became quite astonishingly adept at social media — his pithiest Tweets were even published as a book, 2020's How To Be A Complete And Utter Blunt: The Diary Of A Reluctant Social Media Sensation. He started attracting a noticeably different audience to the one you might expect: anyone who turned up at his Greatest Hits tour might have been surprised to find not just 40 and 50 somethings, but people too young to remember Back To Bedlam as anything other than a fuzzy memory from their primary school years. As James explains, "I think the truth is that they were fed my music on long car journeys. They were in the back of their parents' car and their parents were playing this album over and over again, while they're thinking "play something else!," but now it's engrained in them and they know every single word to every single song, and they're there singing along. I think it's been helped by my online presence, X/Twitter and a couple of things on TikTok where they go, "Oh, it's Blunty, and he's funny too!. So I'm getting a crowd of young people, stag dos, hen dos. It's kind of a bizarre place to be." James will take to the road in June next year to embark on a special run of North American arena dates for the 'Back To Bedlam 20th Anniversary Tour,' where he will perform the Back To Bedlam album in its entirety, along with other classic hits from his career. Included in this special 20th anniversary release comes a special version of the original album remastered for 2024, in addition to previously unreleased demos of the core songs from the album, plus previously unreleased songs from the Bedlam era. In true James Blunt fashion, he explains; "I've released seven studio albums, but Back To Bedlam was the one people actually bought. So on its twentieth anniversary, the record label and I thought we should repackage it with some early demos, and milk it for all it's worth. It was one of the biggest selling albums of the Noughties, so here's hoping it makes a dent in the 20's." Back To Bedlam featured the global smash hit 'You're Beautiful' and is one of the top ten best-selling albums of the Noughties, garnering five Grammy nominations. As James humbly approaches national treasure status in his native UK, he is widely regarded for his honesty, wit and charm, as showcased on record, on stage and with his ever-engaging social media banter. Next year, James will play four dates across North America, kicking off June 12th in Toronto, and finishing July 3rd in Mexico City. Tickets on sale at www.jamesblunt.com "I've been touring now for twenty years, and really, it's only Back To Bedlam that people want to hear… so on that album's twentieth anniversary, what better way to celebrate than to head out on the 'Back To Bedlam 20th Anniversary Tour'!" explains James. "I'll play all the songs from Back To Bedlam in full, from start to finish, and chuck in the better known songs from later albums to finish. It's going to be, well, it pains me to say it… beautiful." And that...it will be. It's time to celebrate one of the UK's most esteemed solo artists of our time.

Ocean House is turning up the heat this summer with the debut of a bold new concept at its beloved Terrace restaurant. Starting June 22, Dalia reopens with a fresh rhythm and flavor—this time channeling the lively spirit of Spain with a full Spanish tapas menu.   Gone are the tacos (for now)—in their place: jamón Ibérico, pan con tomate, and seasonal New England ingredients turned Iberian-chic. Curated Spanish wines and a crowd-pleasing Sangria Spritz round out the experience, perfect for sun-drenched evenings on the terrace.   Executive Chef Terence Feury says it best: “It’s not just a new menu—it’s a new rhythm.”   Dalia will be open Sunday through Thursday throughout the summer season an reservations can be made here.

Our June book is "The Witch of Blackbird Pond" by Elizabeth George Speare. This book is written by a CT Author.   From the jacket: "Sixteen-year-old Kit Tyler is marked by suspicion and disapproval from the moment she arrives on the unfamiliar shores of colonial Connecticut in 1687. Alone and desperate, she has been forced to leave her beloved home on the island of Barbados and join a family she has never met.   Torn between her quest for belonging and her desire to be true to herself, Kit struggles to survive in a hostile place. Just when it seems she must give up, she finds a kindred spirit. But Kit’s friendship with Hannah Tupper, believed by the colonists to be a witch, proves more taboo than she could have imagined and ultimately forces Kit to choose between her heart and her duty."

His job is to be the Eyes—to see everything that happens within the park and report back to the park’s elders, three ancient Bison. His friends—a seagull, a raccoon, a squirrel, and a pelican—work with him as the Assistant Eyes, observing the humans and other animals who share the park and making sure the Equilibrium is in balance.   But changes are afoot. More humans arrive in the park. A new building, containing mysterious and hypnotic rectangles, goes up. And then there are the goats—an actual boatload of goats—who appear, along with a shocking revelation that changes Johannes’s view of the world."   In addition to reading the story, class sessions will include relevant math and science lessons, and will also integrate personal finance activities.

Seats are on a first-come, first-serve basis, and seats are not guaranteed with ticket purchase.) wardhaydenandtheoutliers.co   The story of “Little by Little,” the new album by Ward Hayden & The Outliers, began like so many Bruce Springsteen songs do: in a car with the radio on, hurtling down a highway, headed for distant destinations. But in this instance a voice of sour rhetoric ignited Hayden’s desire to balance the scale with the pursuit of something unifying, constructive, and positive. Unfortunate statements made by a fellow Massachusetts Country artist that directed their audience NOT to listen to Bruce Springsteen kicked off what became a two year recording project that has resulted in an impressive collection of meaningful Springsteen-penned songs that connect us through the acknowledgement, acceptance, and celebration of our hardships and triumphs. Songs the Outliers perform with soul and passion, showcasing the meaningfulness of what unites us, and the ties that bind us together through the perseverance of the enduring human spirit. An impressive endeavor that was two years in the making, Ward Hayden and The Outliers wound up with a clutch of 16 finished Springsteen songs, all interpreted Outliers-style, that they decided to split down the middle into two separate, yet thematically linked albums. Their respective release dates will coincide with the Outliers always-busy touring schedule so fans will have fresh, new music to latch onto live and on record. “Little by Little” drops first on April 18th, with the second installment, “Piece by Piece” (both titles are gleaned from Springsteen’s lyrics to “Racing In The Street”) due later this year, right around the time the band heads for Europe & Scandinavia. As any fan of this prolific Massachusetts-born band knows, the music on “Little by Little” is outfitted in the inimitable Outliers’ style. That is, to say, with a marvelously e?ective, updated dose of Country & Western flavor. All told, the musicianship here is so comfortably tight you could bounce a jukebox quarter o? of it. Of course, the sonic package is topped o? by the Outliers’ calling card and ace-in-the-hole: Hayden’s emotionally resonant, supremely silken vocals. It’s a voice that, in the span of a verse or a moment, can e?ortlessly summon the highest of spirits or sink the saddest of hearts. And as if that wasn’t enough to draw listeners in, for “Little by Little,” Hayden even taught himself to play harmonica, which you can hear augment the wistful, twin elegies of “Used Cars” and “Promised Land,” the latter of which is slated to be the album’s first single. Taken together, what the whole shebang sounds and feels like, unmistakably, is nobody but Ward Hayden & the Outliers. “Well, you can’t out Boss The Boss,” says Hayden, who spent his formative years on the South Shore listening to Springsteen and watching Bruce’s videos on MTV. “We had always felt a little intimidated about trying to tackle his songs because some of them are so iconic. We knew that if we were gonna do them, we had to play them the way we play our music, and that was the first challenge.” “We chose the songs that meant something to us,” Ward says of the selection process. “A lot of the songs have been the soundtrack to growing up – back when you were hanging out with your friends in the kitchen, songs you’d listen to while driving home from school, or during the course of you just living your life. And with this collection, I felt we were able to say some things that I’ve not been able to say myself yet in my own work, and here we were able to cover some important and meaningful ground that I’ve been wanting to cover.”

Seats are on a first-come, first-serve basis, and seats are not guaranteed with ticket purchase.) Instagram Facebook Stellar Cellar was formed in the Summer of 2021 when Shawn Brisson, Aaron Lionetti and Lee Harrison got together for a jam session and had discovered a natural chemistry that unearthed a mysteriously new sound that they couldn’t quite define. With a collective artistic vision and a blend of creative freedoms, the trio began working on all new original material that would consistently break down genre defining barriers and create a sound of their own. After a few years of woodshedding and testing the songs in a live setting on the local circuit, the band decided to add longtime friend and musician Blake Smith to solidify and round out the lineup of a modern rock quartet. The band began playing local clubs and bars around their hometown of Westerly, RI and recorded their debut album Humanoid at Redbone Studio in the Winter of 2024. With a new twist on an ancient art form, Stellar Cellar hopes you enjoy a refreshing taste of a new brand of music!    Jeremiah Hazed Originating out of the Northeast farming town of Salem, Ct. Starting off simply as a few local musicians burning off some mid-week work angst at the local open mic, quickly turned to a cohesive element. Though often categorized as a “Jam” band, Jeremiah Hazed draws from many musical styles & influences while writing powerful original music.
