Will Young has added a slew of new dates to his upcoming ‘Light It Up’ live 2024 tour due to overwhelming demand.
The singer has added six new shows in Falmouth, Gateshead, Manchester, Bristol, Cardiff and a third London date. Tickets for the shows will go on sale on Tuesday 7th May at 10am. A number of dates from the original tour announcement have already sold out.
The tour is in support of Young’s new album ‘Light It Up’, which will be released on 9th August 2024 via BMG. It will be the star’s most intimate tour yet taking shape as an up close and personal evening of acoustic performances of all his hits and new songs, stories and conversation. The 50-plus-date UK tour will kick off in September through to December.
About the tour, Young says: “I’m very excited to be going to a lot of places I haven’t been. I wanted to go to smaller venues so I could properly get around the country rather than just playing the big cities.”
The first single from Young’s new album is ‘Falling Deep’, which is out now. The album sees the acclaimed singer-songwriter team up with new collaborators, pHD, the Scandinavian pop production/writing duo who has worked with Little Mix. He also reunites with Andy Cato of Groove Armada and long-term writing partners Jim and Mima Elliot.
