November 14, 2025 — (Hollywood, CA) — Today, global superstar Lewis Capaldi releases new EP Survive and one of his most raw and personal songs to date - the simply heartbreaking “The Day That I Die.” Listen to the EP HERE, “The Day That I Die” HERE and watch the visualizer HERE.

Arriving on the heels of his critically acclaimed return to touring after nearly two years away, the track quickly became a standout moment of the set, moving fans, and Capaldi himself, to tears. Written about a time when, in his own words onstage, “I didn’t think I would be here anymore,” the song captures Capaldi at his most vulnerable. On the day that I die, tell my mother I was smiling ‘cause I know that she’ll be crying,” he sings, in a gut-wrenching depiction.

Raw, cathartic, and unflinchingly honest, “The Day That I Die” stands tall among Capaldi’s catalogue of emotional anthems, once again showcasing his extraordinary gift for finding truth and beauty in life’s most painful moments.

Survive features all four tracks that Capaldi has released this year. Most recently, he shared the post-breakup anthem, “Almost,” and the soul-stirring Something In The Heavens,” which became his tenth UK Top 10 single and details loss in all of its forms, but also the glimmers of hope that remain. Before that came the EP’s title track, the bold and brave anthem, Survive.”  

Capaldi will return stateside for his biggest North American headline tour to date set to launch April 15, 2026, at Philadelphia’s Liacouras Center arena. The tour includes sold out shows at iconic venues including New York City’s Madison Square Garden, Boston’s MGM Music Hall (two sold out nights,) Denver’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre (two sold out nights), and Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl, among others. The full itinerary and tickets are available here.

Capaldi also announced his biggest UK and Ireland headline shows to date. Kicking off next summer at Dublin’s Marlay Park on June 24th, 2026, Capaldi will take on eight outdoor headline shows including London’s BST Hyde Park on July 11th and 12th. Capaldi will also return to the festival stage and is set to headline festivals including Isle Of Wight, Latitude, before returning home to Glasgow to headline this year’s TRNSMT. Earlier this year, Capaldi’s performed a sold-out 17-date UK arena tour earlier this which sent fans into overdrive with critics unanimous in their praise, delivering four and five star reviews across the board from Rolling Stone, The Guardian and more.

“Survive” is already an enormous hit, becoming not only the UK’s fastest selling single of the year thus far, but also Capaldi’s sixth No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart. That achievement puts him in the esteemed company of Beyoncé, Britney Spears, Drake, Lady Gaga, and Queen. Capaldi’s since brought the song to Good Morning America as part of their “Summer Concert Series” and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where he also sat down for a moving conversation. Capaldi joined This Past Weekend With Theo Von for a revealing interview, too, and just this month visited The Graham Norton Show alongside Taylor Swift, where he once again charmed audiences with his trademark wit and heartbreaking songwriting. 

In June, after two years away from the spotlight, Capaldi broke the silence and made a courageous return with “Survive” which addresses a challenging period in his career that culminated at Glastonbury 2023 when, in an extremely difficult but unifying moment, the Pyramid Stage crowd helped carry an emotional Capaldi over the finish line. The Scottish singer and songwriter has now come full circle, making a triumphant return to Glastonbury with a surprise set that drew major praise. Rolling Stone wrote, “Lewis Capaldi is back and his return made for one of the most emotional Glastonbury moments of the weekend,” going on to dub “Survive” a “Song You Need to Know” and “an empowering, emotional ballad.” Billboard deemed Capaldi’s return, “One of the best moments from Glastonbury […] a momentous occasion and the weekend’s most emotional moment.” Watch Capaldi perform “Survive” live at Glastonbury, HERE.

Ahead of his celebrated Glastonbury performance, Capaldi first played a series of intimate May shows in Scotland as a guest of the mental health charity CALM, in honor of Mental Health Awareness Week. With no pressure, and no level of expectation, the shows allowed Capaldi the space to gauge his comfort and emotional response before returning to the limelight. Now, after weathering the kind of storm that no one can prepare for, Capaldi embraces his new era with a renewed sense of purpose. Lewis Capaldi isn’t just surviving, he’s returned stronger than ever, heart wide open, and ready to step out again.

About Lewis Capaldi

Lewis Capaldi’s debut album, Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent, was the biggest selling UK album of 2019 and 2020, propelling him from bedroom musician to superstar. In addition to a GRAMMY® nomination for “Song of the Year,” the single “Someone You Loved” won the BRIT Award for “Song of the Year” alongside Capaldi’s “Best New Artist” trophy. The song stands as the UK’s most streamed song of all time and the fourth highest ever streamed song in the world. With Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent, he scored his second UK No. 1 album and three UK No. 1 singles, Pointless,” Wish You The Best,” and Forget Me.” The 2023 album earned praise from the likes of Rolling Stone, The Guardian, NME, GQ, Stereogum, and TIME, with the latter noting that “Capaldi’s talent is tugging at heartstrings — or rather, pulling at them with all his vocal might.” The New York Times observed, “Capaldi has a scorched cannon of a voice, and it’s best deployed on songs about anguish. To date, his career has lurched forward one vocal bloodletting at a time.” Taking its name from the album’s closing song, the compelling music documentary Lewis Capaldi: How I’m Feeling Now, in partnership with Netflix, BMG, and Pulse Films, shot straight to the top of the Netflix chart, making it the most watched film on the platform since its release, and was nominated for a GRAMMY® Award for “Best Music Film.”
