CALUM SCOTT SWOONS ON BRIGHT NEW BALLAD “MY WORLD”

Friday 4 October – London, UK: Multi-platinum-selling singer/songwriter Calum Scott gives us another reason to celebrate his musical canon: “My World,” a romantic ballad complete with piano, strings, and a surge of epic production.

With his blissed-out summer anthem “Roots” still making waves among Calum’s globe-spanning fanbase, “My World” hits like the changing of the seasons. Produced by LVLS and longtime collaborator Jon “MAGS” Maguire (Jax Jones, Tiesto), and co-written by Calum, Maguire, Josh Record (Avicii, DNCE), and Adrien Nookadu (M-22), among others, the new single balances the artist’s deep emotional resonance with a sound that uplifts the listener.

Says Calum, “‘My World’ is a new way of saying ‘I love you’ - it is a return to the ballad for me with classic songwriting but with fresh production that I‘m really excited to share! Having toured in stadiums with Ed Sheeran for the last 9 months and watching, in particular, the emotional songs resonate with thousands of people across the globe, I’m looking forward to be coming back with something that I think

 my fans will really love! I have worked with some new writers on this one too and am excited to keep exploring my diversity and seeing what else I am capable of!’

As “My World” begins, Calum doesn’t waste a second making his devotion known: “I talk in my sleep every night, and think of the wrongs I’d make right, so I can give you my all undivided...” The keys and strings never sound too heavy — instead, there’s a slight sway that emphasizes the optimism in the lyrics. And when Calum delivers the chorus, the drop hits, underscoring his sincerity with warm bass synths and lilting drums: “I’d pull down the moon, I’d go to space / To the end of the universe, I wouldn’t hesitate / Just to make you see that you got all of me, and you are my world.”

“My World” follows not just “Roots” but also breezy dance-pop cut “Then There Was You” — which happened to be the lead single from The Garfield Movie (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) — and “Lighthouse,” a pounding, panoramic love song accompanied by a breathtakingly cinematic video. The recent series of singles has served to spotlight Calum’s more lighthearted side and pop-leaning sensibilities without sacrificing his gift for expressing big feelings.

Fittingly, Calum’s become known for a life-affirming live show that fosters an incredibly close connection with the crowd. In August, he wrapped an outing performing at stadiums across Asia and Europe as support for Ed Sheeran’s extended Mathematics Tour. Starting 3 October in Montreal, he’ll head back out on his own The Songbook So Far North American tour with support from rising Irish singer/songwriter Cian Ducrot. The run concludes on 15 October in Highland, CA.

The Songbook So Far Tour will showcase songs from Calum’s gold-certified 2018 debut album Only Human (featuring his 5X platinum smash “You Are The Reason” and 3X platinum cover

of Robyn’s “Dancing On My Own”), 2022’s sophomore set Bridges (with soul-stirring hits like “Rise,” “Biblical,” and “If You Ever Change Your Mind”), and his forthcoming third album — the details of which he has yet to share. Stay tuned as Calum Scott continues to reveal more of his world.
