The Who We Used To Be Tour is the eighth tour by British musician James Blunt.

Background[edit]

After Blunt announced his new album "Who We Used To Be" in August 2023, he also announced his new tour. He announced the tour in a video from the bathtub on his social media accounts. He says: “I can't even put into words how much I'm looking forward to going on tour again in 2024. It's been so much fun writing and recording my new album and some of the new songs will undoubtedly get you on your feet and dancing again. I'm already looking forward to crowd surfing with you!”[1]

In November 2023, James Blunt added his first concerts in Australia in six years to the tour. [2]

James Blunt announced that he will go on tour again after the Who We Used To Be Tour in spring 2025 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of his debut album “Back To Bedlam”.[3]
