Blunt’s third studio album, Some Kind of Trouble, was released in November 2010. Since then, Blunt has supported MSF by holding meet-and-greet auctions at many of his concerts. He graduated with a BSc in sociology in 1996. James stated on an interview in his Back to Bedlam sessions that he chose to join the military as “his father was pushing for it, so that Blunt could obtain a secure work placement and income”. He was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Life Guards, a unit of the Household Cavalry, where he rose to the rank of captain. Initially assigned to reconnaissance of the Macedonia-Yugoslavia border, Blunt and his unit worked ahead of the front lines directing forces and targeting Serb positions for the NATO bombing campaign.
