Calum Bowie hails Edinburgh as inspiration for TikTok famous song in new video

A TikTok-famous singer based in Edinburgh has hailed the capital as his inspiration for new song, Listen To Your City. Calum Bowie has released his new music video for the hit song, with the shots being taken around the city.

The Aberdeen-born songwriter rose to fame on social media after posting videos of himself singing to the people of Edinburgh from his flat window. With over 320,000 TikTok followers, the Scottish lad has been garnering popularity with his cheeky nature and talents, covering songs from his windowsill as the world passed by.

And now Listen To Your City has gone live, with the music video travelling around Edinburgh while he plays guitar and sings to camera. Writing on Instagram, Calum said: "ITS FINALLY OUT!! We finally have visuals for this bad boy - super proud of this video and thank you so much to @danielgreig9 and @alexcormackfilms of @resolutelive for making this masterpiece happen.

"My favourite clip by far is the street timelapse - I’d always wanted to try one of these for either some release artwork or as part of a video and it came out wayyy cooler than I’d hoped! It was actually a really awkward shot to film and definitely irritated a few folk walking by so I can only apologise if you walked into my guitar!
