About Lewis Capaldi
Lewis Marc Capaldi was born on 7 October 1996 in Bathgate, West Lothian, Scotland — a former mining town between Edinburgh and Glasgow on the M8 corridor — to Carola, a nurse, and Mark Capaldi, a fishmonger. He is of Scottish-Italian extraction on his father's side and is a second cousin of the actor Peter Capaldi, the twelfth Doctor on the BBC's Doctor Who. He started playing guitar at the age of two on a child-sized acoustic, was performing in Bathgate pubs by his early teens, and was writing his own material by the time he was fifteen, posting early acoustic clips to YouTube and SoundCloud through his school years at St Kentigern's Academy in Blackburn, West Lothian. The breakthrough was the demo of Bruises, uploaded to SoundCloud in March 2017, which accrued enough early streaming traction to draw a Universal Music Group A&R approach. Vertigo Records — the UK Universal imprint — signed him later that year and released Bruises as his official debut single, which moved into the top forty across multiple European markets on word of mouth alone. The Bloom EP followed in late 2017, and the Breach EP in November 2018 included Someone You Loved, the ballad written in collaboration with the TMS production team that would change the trajectory of the project. Someone You Loved was released as a single in November 2018, hit number one in March 2019, held the UK top spot for seven non-consecutive weeks, crossed to a US Billboard Hot 100 number one, won BRIT Song of the Year in 2020, and earned a Grammy nomination for Song of the Year. The debut album Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent dropped in May 2019, opened at number one on the UK Albums Chart, broke the US Billboard 200 top five, and produced Hold Me While You Wait and Before You Go as further singles. The follow-up cycle was disrupted: Capaldi publicly disclosed a Tourette syndrome diagnosis in September 2022, having previously described visible tics on stage as anxiety-related shoulder twitches. The second album, Broken by Desire to Be Heavenly Sent, released in May 2023 and entered the UK Albums Chart at number one off the strength of Forget Me, Pointless, Wish You the Best, and Heavenly Kind of State of Mind. His Pyramid Stage set at Glastonbury Festival on 24 June 2023 became a watershed moment: visibly struggling with vocal tics, Capaldi was carried through Someone You Loved by the entire Worthy Farm audience singing the chorus for him. He announced a hiatus from touring immediately afterwards. The return through late 2024 and 2025 — staged, deliberate, and at full arena scale — has been received as one of the most significant comebacks in modern UK pop. He remains signed to Vertigo Records (UK) and Capitol Records (US).
