Without doubt, 2019 has been a breakout year for Lewis Capaldi. After celebrating a whopping 7 weeks atop the charts, the UK’s biggest single this year has propelled him to become one of the first artists to ever sell out a UK arena tour before the release of a debut album, out next month.

Jack Savoretti  has so far sold 70,000 copies of his #1 album ‘Singing to Strangers’ Jack kicks off his UK tour next month ending at London’s Wembley Arena on May 31st. We also can’t not mention his exquisite volley into the top bins on Soccer AM. Baggio-esque!

A big MBC “hello” to shey baba whose debut album ‘Requiem’ is out May 10th on Virgin EMI. The exciting new LA songwriter, who’s just joined our family, is doing the ‘release thing’ a little differently with stunning double A-sides and an utterly captivating 15-minute film with cinematography from James Laxton – Academy Award nominated for his work on Moonlight and If Beale Street Could Talk.

Winning Voice coach and all round superstar Olly Murs kicks off his massive UK tour next Wednesday in Aberdeen. He plays two eagerly anticipated nights at London’s 02 May 17th and 18th. All the hits and more!!
