Lewis Capaldi has announced his new album, Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent, out via Capitol Records on May, 19, 2023. The album is available for pre-order now HERE.
Featuring his smash single “Forget Me”, the album will follow Capaldi’s 2019 full-length debut, Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent — a massively acclaimed effort that emerged as the biggest-selling UK album of both 2019 and 2020. Also today, the 26-year-old artist announced his spring 2023 headline tour of North America, with all tickets on sale this Friday; see below for the full list of tour dates and venues.
Directed by NME Award-winner Louis Bhose, the official video for “Forget Me” served up a shot-for-shot remake of Wham’s 1983 hit “Club Tropicana.” Today, Capaldi unveiled an acoustic version of the track, watch the video HERE.
Made with longtime collaborators including TMS, producer/songwriter Phil Plested (James Bay, Bastille) and hitmakers like super-producer Max Martin (Taylor Swift, The Weeknd), Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent pushes forward with the piercingly honest songwriting and soul-stirring vocal work Capaldi first showcased on his debut album. “I don’t want to create a new sound for myself, or reinvent myself,” Capaldi says of Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent. “The songs I want to write are emotional songs, about love or loss.”
After selling out headline shows to hundreds of thousands across the continents over the past few years — and headlining his first-ever festivals last summer — Capaldi will embark on a headline tour of North America next spring. Available to Citi cardholders in the U.S. and American Express cardholders in Canada, credit-card pre-sales for the tour start tomorrow at 10 a.m. local time. Additionally, the Spotify pre-sale and promoter/venue/radio pre-sales start Thursday at 10 a.m. local time. The public on-sale for the tour begins this Friday at 12 p.m. local time.
