James Blake

This is confirmed to be the English singer-songwriter and producer from London, matching the UK tour dates in the listing data.

James Blake is a singer, songwriter and producer born James Blake Litherland in Enfield, London, England, who first made his name with a run of early 12" releases before breaking through properly with his self-titled debut.

His sound draws on soul and R&B wrapped around electronic production, and he's known for his emotive, soulful light head voice and use of falsetto. He started out with EPs on Hessle Audio and R&S before releasing albums through A&M, Polydor and Republic, and his latest album, Trying Times, came out in March 2026 through Good Boy Records, marking his first independent full-length release after leaving Polydor.

This run of UK dates sees him bring the Trying Times Tour to Glasgow, Edinburgh, Manchester and Bristol, with Manchester also hosting an Overmono-headlined bill the same week. Expect a set built around his newer material alongside the songs that have defined his catalogue over the years.
