Hide AdIt has been a whirlwind three years for two-time BRIT Award winner Lewis Capaldi, that has seen him top the charts around the world and sell-out arena tours.
He was nominated for the Critics' Choice Award at the 2019 BRITS before his breakthrough single Someone You Loved topped the UK Singles Chart for seven weeks.
Someone You Loved has become a global anthem – hitting number one on the US Billboard Hot 100. It was nominated for a Grammy Awards for 'Song of the Year' and is today the longest-running top 10 UK single of all time by a British artist.
Capaldi's debut album, Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent was the top-selling album of 2019 and 2020. He played two sell-out shows at the UK’s largest open-air arena in Scarborough in 2019.
He returns to the Yorkshire Coast for a third sell-out show on Thursday August 11.
