James Blunt joins SmoothFM on Sunday afternoons

Singer-songwriter James Blunt will be fronting Sunday afternoons on Nova Entertainment’s SmoothFM from this May 28.

Blunt will be joined by rotating guest hosts Dolly Parton, Barry Gibb, Neil Diamond, Elton John and Olivia Newton-John.


The former X Factor Australia judge will be on the air on Sydney’s 95.3 and Melbourne’s 91.5 from Sunday May 28 until Sunday June 18 at 4pm.

“I’ve had a great time in this country, I was so lucky really to come here to hang out on X Factor, lived on Bondi…I’ve been looked after phenomenally by the Aussies, toured here so many times, so I’m always incredibly grateful to be back, thanks for having me,” Blunt said in a statement.

Masterchef judge Matt Preston is set to be the next celebrity host following Blunt’s on-air stint.
