Info zu What a Time To Be Alive

Das Debüt des Jahres: Mit seinem europaweiten Hit Leave A Light On schuf der britische Shootingstar Tom Walker eines der prägendsten Musikstücke des ersten Halbjahres 2018 der Song war schlichtweg überall: im Radio, in den Charts, in die Streaming-Playlisten, in Werbespots... Die bisherige Gesamtbilanz ist atemberaubend: Leave A Light On verzeichnet mittlerweile mehr als hundert Millionen Spotify-Streams und über fünfzig Millionen Video-Streams. In 29 Ländern kletterte der von Steve Mac (Ed Sheeran etc.) produzierte Song in die Top Ten der iTunes Charts, in zwölf Ländern erreichte er Platz eins. In den offiziellen deutschen Charts peakte die Single auf Platz acht und wurde mit Gold ausgezeichnet. Nun veröffentlichte der sympathische Sänger und Songwriter seine mit Spannung erwartete Follow-Up-Single My Way und im Oktober wird Tom Walkers Debütalbum What A Time To Be Alive erscheinen. Als Co-Songwriter und -Produzent stand dem 26-Jährigen bei My Way diesmal Mike Spencer (Rudimental, Zara Larsson) zur Seite, gemeinsam nahmen die beiden eine mitreißende Hymne auf, die von Toms trademarkhafter Ausnahmestimme veredelt wird.

Tom Walker
Born in Scotland and raised in Manchester, Walker became obsessed with his father’s record collection at a young age, finding inspiration in Ray Charles, The Police, and Bob Marley, to name a few. By 2016, the troubadour uncovered his own sound through layering rap-style production, electronic shine, and traditional acoustic power fuelled by dynamic powerhouse pipes. As songs such as “Fly Away With Me” took off, Walker earned the praise of Pigeons & Planes, British GQ, Clash, Sunday Times, BBC Radio 1, BBC 1Xtra, Beats 1, Earmilk, Complex, Source UK, Eargasm, and more. He’s won over live crowds across the globe on his own tours, and supporting stints alongside the likes of Gallant, Jake Bugg, and a 2017 U.S. tour where he supported multiplatinum Dublin rockers The Script.

The album sleeve for What A Time to Be Alive was created by the innovative artist Craig Alan, and features an extraordinary portrait of Tom comprised of over 2000 miniature figures of people, many of whom have influenced Tom throughout his 26 years on the planet.

“Leave A Light On” cemented Tom’s leap – as Idolator has noted – ‘from a buzz act to a contender,’ and “Angels” keeps him on the rising path. His upcoming debut album, What A Time To Be Alive, scheduled for release October 19 and available for pre-order now, is poised to solidify his much-deserved reputation as one of the most exciting new artists working today.
