Info for I AM

Since bursting into the charts with huge tracks ‘Leave A Light On’ and ‘Just You And I’ he had achieved some incredible milestones from winning a Brit Award, selling out shows across the globe as well as performing with The Princess Of Wales in Westminster Abbey where she joined Tom on piano for a memorable version of his track ‘For Those Who Can’t Be Here’.

Tom now makes a powerful return, sounding like you’ve never heard him before with brand new, defining singles including ‘Burn’, ‘Head Underwater’ and the forthcoming single ‘Holy Ghost’.

Where previously, Tom became known for powerful accounts of other people’s stories in this new album (out 20th September 2024) he now finds himself writing about his own personal struggles and anxieties, creative challenges, sadness and moments of despair. It is a sometimes visceral account of who Tom Walker is in 2024, hence the title: I Am.

“I Am is a culmination of me trying to figure out who I am for the last four years.” explains Tom. “This record is a snapshot of what's been going on in my life, and what's been happening around me – what's made me happy or sad, ecstatic or miserable.”

Tom Walker

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.

This album contains no booklet.
