Jamie Cullum has become the first British jazz artist to have a platinum album!

LONDON, UK (BBC/BPI) - Jamie Cullum's latest effort, Twentysomething album has sold 300,000 copies in the UK, the threshold for a platinum award, in just over a month.
Cullum plays everything from jazz standards to covers of songs by Nirvana and Radiohead. His next single will be a version of Jimi Hendrix's The Wind Cries Mary.
The 24-year-old has signed a $1,5m record deal and is being promoted by the likes of Michael Parkinson.

Previously, the UK's most successful jazz artist had been Courtney Pine, who had only ever gone silver - awarded for sales between 60,000 and 100,000.
