Blunt released his newest album in October of 2013 entitled ‘Moon Landing’, which features an emotional and powerful side to the singer-songwriter we have not yet seen. The album is personal and intimate, reflecting back to where Blunt got his start and where he is now. The theme of the tour is the romanticism and loneliness of the moon landings. For Normandale, this was a fun challenge. He explained: “My thoughts and vision with the lighting design were inspired by the lunar landing theme.
