November 14, 2025 — Hollywood, CA — Lewis Capaldi is back, and he’s baring his soul like never before. Today, the Scottish superstar releases his new EP Survive, featuring the deeply personal and heartbreakingly honest track, “The Day That I Die.” Written about a time when, in Capaldi’s own words onstage, “I didn’t think I would be here anymore,” the song is a raw glimpse into the singer’s most vulnerable moments. Its haunting lyrics—“On the day that I die, tell my mother I was smiling ‘cause I know that she’ll be crying” have already moved fans to tears during live shows and even brought Capaldi himself to an emotional place onstage.

The Day That I Die is emblematic of Capaldi’s extraordinary gift for turning life’s hardest experiences into music that resonates universally. Over the years, the singer-songwriter has built a catalog defined by catharsis, vulnerability, and unflinching honesty—and this EP, Survive, continues that legacy.

Survive compiles all four tracks Capaldi has released this year: the post-breakup anthem “Almost,” the soul-stirring “Something In The Heavens” (which became his tenth UK Top 10 single), the empowering title track “Survive,” and the deeply intimate “The Day That I Die.” Each song showcases a different facet of Capaldi’s artistry—from heartbreak to hope, from struggle to triumph—painting a picture of a man who has faced personal storms and emerged stronger.

This release comes as Capaldi returns to touring after nearly two years away from the spotlight. His upcoming North American headline tour, launching April 15, 2026, at Philadelphia’s Liacouras Center, will hit some of the continent’s most iconic venues, including Madison Square Garden, Boston’s MGM Music Hall, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl. Fans across the UK and Ireland will also see Capaldi at his biggest headline shows to date, including Dublin’s Marlay Park, London’s BST Hyde Park, and other major outdoor venues. Capaldi will also appear at festivals such as Isle of Wight, Latitude, and will headline TRNSMT in his hometown of Glasgow.

Capaldi’s journey over the past few years has been anything but easy. After a period away from the spotlight, he made a courageous return at Glastonbury 2023, where a supportive crowd helped him navigate a particularly emotional performance on the Pyramid Stage. Critics called it “one of the most emotional Glastonbury moments of the weekend” (Rolling Stone) and described “Survive” as “an empowering, emotional ballad” (Billboard). Before this moment, Capaldi quietly played intimate shows in Scotland in collaboration with the mental health charity CALM, giving him space to process and reconnect with performing on his own terms.

The EP’s title track, “Survive,” has already made waves, becoming the UK’s fastest-selling single of 2025 and Capaldi’s sixth No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart. This achievement places him among an elite group of artists, including Beyoncé, Drake, Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, and Queen. Capaldi has continued to engage fans through high-profile appearances, from Good Morning America and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to interviews with Theo Von and a recent appearance on The Graham Norton Show alongside Taylor Swift, all while maintaining the mix of humor and heart that makes him so relatable.

Capaldi’s career milestones are extraordinary. With over 30 billion combined global streams, ten UK Top 10 singles, and six UK No. 1 hits, he has become one of the defining voices of his generation. His 2019 debut, Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent, became the UK’s biggest-selling album of both 2019 and 2020, and his breakout single “Someone You Loved” remains the UK’s most-streamed song of all time and the fourth most-streamed song globally. Along the way, he has earned multiple BRIT Awards and GRAMMY® nominations, and his music continues to resonate with fans around the world.

With Survive, Lewis Capaldi is not just releasing music—he’s inviting listeners into his journey, sharing both the pain and the resilience that have defined his path. After weathering personal and professional storms, he emerges stronger, more open-hearted, and ready to embrace this new chapter with his characteristic honesty and courage.
