Rising teenage star Maddox Batson is heading to the UK this week as part of his Live Worldwide Tour, bringing his fast-growing buzz across the Atlantic just as new single ‘Fallin’ Easy' lands. At just 16, Batson is already building serious momentum, and these UK dates mark a key moment in his rapid ascent. Get tour tickets right here
The run kicks off in Dublin before arriving in the UK for a string of highly anticipated shows in Glasgow, Manchester and London, giving fans their first real chance to experience his live show up close. With intimate venues like SWG3 Galvanizers and the O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire on the schedule, it’s the kind of tour that feels tailor-made for early discovery, the moment before an artist inevitably outgrows rooms of this size.
Released just ahead of the tour, ‘Fallin’ Easy' leans into the wide-eyed rush of young love, pairing acoustic textures with a singalong hook that captures the simplicity of connection: those late-night conversations and unexplainable feelings that come with it. Co-written with Jackson Foote and Grant Averill, the track adds another layer to Batson’s growing catalogue, showcasing a knack for melody and relatability that belies his age.
The timing couldn’t be better. With US media already taking notice. Rolling Stone noting he’s “having his moment” and comparisons being drawn to a young pop-country crossover star. Batson arrives in the UK with real momentum behind him. These shows feel less like an introduction and more like a statement of intent.
