British Singer/Songwriter Louis Tomlinson today drops a surprise new album, ‘LIVE’.
The LIVE album comprises a collection of 15 songs, each recorded in a different city, at a different show, spanning the past 3 years across Louis' two Global World Tours which have seen him perform over 170 shows to date, visiting 47 countries spanning 5 continents.
The digital version of 'LIVE', out now, features his singles including ‘Bigger Than Me’, ‘We Made It, ‘Walls’ and ‘Out Of My System’, alongside fan favourite album tracks, all released live for the very first time.
The physical versions of 'LIVE’ will be released 23rd August on double CD and 2 LP gatefold picture disc vinyl. Included with the vinyl product is a special exclusive ‘Tour Book’. In this unique offering, fans have the opportunity to submit their own personal message with the chance of being included in the book itself.
Louis says: "I've been lucky enough to spend the last 3 years touring the world twice over. The feeling I get sharing those live moments will be with me forever. To be able to record these songs from all over the world and put them out as an album like this feels so special, and a real tribute to the fans who make each and every show feel unique and incredible. Thank you! Enjoy!"
There are 4 exclusive tracks split between the physical editions of ‘LIVE’, including a special version of the One Direction classic ‘Where Do Broken Hearts Go’ which is available only on the double CD.
Accompanying video clips of compiled tour footage will be shared on Louis’s social channels to support the release, showcasing a glimpse into his past 3 years on the road.
