Lewis Capaldi teases Glasgow gig as second album finally gets released

Lewis Capaldi is on his way to Glasgow this weekend as he celebrates the release of his new album.

Taking to Instagram, the singer and songwriter shared many videos of him counting down the moment until his second album, Broken by Desire to Be Heavenly Sent, was out.

Having been released at midnight today (May 19), thousands of people have already bought the album which includes hits such as Forget Me and Pointless.

In a funny rant on his social media, he took to his Instagram stories to update fans saying: "I know what you're probably thinking Lewis your album comes out tonight it's f****** huge, you're probably gonna go out and celebrate. Where's the album release party?

"You'd be wrong thinking that. I'm in the house by myself doing nothing. I started watching Ed Sheeran's documentary, it made me cry so I turned it off - don't wanna face my emotions."

Going on to joke even more about how it sounds like a very "depressing" night, the 26-year-old said: "Listen I have things to do tomorrow" as he spoke about his pop up shop, an event in London as well as his weekend in Glasgow.

In more of his stories he said: "I tell you what's actually quite strange is everyone who worked on the record is out celebrating, getting pissed, having a few beers and putting their feet up...except for f****** me. I'm looking forward to seeing you guys and gals there, it's going to be good fun."

The Someone You Loved singer is coming back to his home city this weekend with him set to make a special live appearance at HMV Glasgow Argyle Street on May 21 (Sunday).

Lucky customers will be able to see Lewis perform a few tracks from the new album in a very intimate live acoustic setting.

After this two more events in the city will follow with him performing in Glasgow's SWG3 Galvanizers for a stripped back acoustic performance, where he will also be answering questions about the album from fans in attendance.

All events are sold out however you can buy his album through HMV and Amazon below.
