Music News - Calum Scott Announces New Zealand Show This October
17 June 2018 - 0 Comments
Frontier Touring are thrilled to
confirm that UK crooner Calum
Scott, the man behind one of the world’s most recognisable and
loved renditions of Robyn’s Dancing On My Own,
will play an exclusive New Zealand show at Auckland’s Powerstation on
Tuesday 23 October.
Scott’s heartwarming appearance on Britain’s
Got Talent in 2015 shot him to instant global stardom, and when he
officially released his audition song Dancing On My Own as the lead single from
his debut album Only
Human, it took the world by storm. The track quickly
accumulated more than 6.5 million worldwide sales, reached Platinum status in
New Zealand and saw the former recruitment officer from Hull nominated for the
Brit Award for British Single Of The Year.
Only Human is the
result of a long, cathartic songwriting journey. Filled with deeply personal
material, Scott’s ability to transform pain into beauty is undeniable, whether
he is addressing coming out to his father, unrequited longing, adolescent
isolation, or the gratitude he feels toward his sister Jade, who pushed him to
sing on stage for the first time and auditioned alongside him on Britain’s Got Talent.
Scott’s elegantly sculpted pop centres on his soulful vocals and heartfelt
lyrics, exemplified in gently uplifting single You Are The Reason, aching piano ballad Hotel Room and hit single Rhythm Inside. The singer’s ability to
consistently build on his gift for poignant, emotionally charged performances
is a sure sign of the lasting impact the Englishman will continue to have on
all who hear his voice. To experience it in the flesh is unmissable.
‘Scott’s stunningly
pure voice is affecting enough in itself, but his lyrics on every one of the
[album’s] tracks are vulnerable and raw.’ - Billboard
‘With Only Human, [Calum
Scott] makes an impressive splash… a compelling debut album.’ - Huffington Post
2018 has certainly been a significant year for the 29 year old as he took his upbeat yet deceptively anguished balladry on the road for his first headline tour across the UK and Europe in May. This October, it’s our turn.
‘[‘No Matter What’] left concert goers captivated as Scott’s voice radiated throughout a silent crowd. Upon finishing the song, Scott couldn’t hold his emotions back and walked to the back of the stage to dry his eyes as he received one of the biggest ovations of the night.’ – The Courier Online
Fans down under are in for a treat when Calum Scott plays New Zealand! Don’t sleep on your chance to pick up tickets to one of Britain’s most in-demand performers.
