With this India leg, we are excited to continue being part of his journey and proud to create an even bigger stage for his music, offering fans across the country the chance to experience his artistry first-hand."
News of the tour follows the announcement of Calum's forthcoming third studio album, Avenoir, which borrows its title from John Koenig's The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, a word-construction project that defines "avenoir" as "the desire that memory could flow backwards.
The globally beloved artist's third full-length features his brand-new single "I Wanna Dance With Somebody," a wildly romantic epic track that brings Calum's stunning and soulful voice to an intimate yet grandiose expression of longing and remorse.
'Avenoir' marks the latest entry in a formidable catalogue that also includes his gold-certified 2018 debut Only Human, featuring his 5x platinum smash "You Are The Reason", "Where Are You Now" (a gold-certified collaboration with Lost Frequencies that earned a 2023 BRIT Award Nomination for âBest International Song' and cracked the Top 20 on the Spotify Global Chart), as well as the iconic 3x platinum cover of Robyn's "Dancing On My Own" which earned a BRIT Award nomination in the category of Best British Single. With his powerful voice and soul-baring songwriting, Calum creates the kind of deeply resonant songs that are primed to accompany the most meaningful moments in our lives.
From weddings to end-of-life rituals, fans have turned to his music to soundtrack major life events and for solace in times of heartbreak and loss. To date, Calum's music has amassed over 10 billion streams worldwide.
