Lewis Capaldi plays Baloise Session
Synopsis
Lewis Capaldi is a Scottish singer and songwriter. On May 16, 2017, he released his first song Bruises. The song was played almost 28 million times worldwide on Spotify in a short period of time. Shortly after, he was signed by Virgin Records and Capitol Records and released his first EP Bloom on October 20, 2017 in collaboration with Grammy Award-winning producer Malay. In the first half of 2018, he completed a tour of North America and Europe. The year 2019 began with Capaldi receiving praise from seemingly every critic from every corner of the world. With a record-breaking 6 completely sold out headline tours in less than 2 years, his rise is simply unprecedented. From humble beginnings filling pubs just 24 months ago, to headlining arena tours that sold out in seconds. There is no better introduction to his debut album than the worldwide #1 hit single „Someone You Loved,“ which spent 7 weeks at #1 in the UK and shook the charts at every turn. The album rocketed to #1 where it has now spent no less than 10 weeks at the top of the UK album chart and is well on its way to becoming the longest running top 10 album in UK history. The story soon became known throughout Europe, Australia, Asia and eventually America, where it topped the Billboard Hot 100 and catapulted Capaldi into the elite ranks of artists who, like Adele and Ed Sheeran, are among the few British artists to reach the top of the American charts, breaking the 2 billion-stream barrier in the process.
