Scottish Singer-Songwriter; Known for "Someone You Loved" & "Survive"; Tourette’s Syndrome Survivor
Lewis Capaldi Biography
Lewis Capaldi is a Scottish singer-songwriter who rose to international fame with his 2018 hit single "Someone You Loved." The song dominated the UK Singles Chart for seven weeks in 2019 and reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. Following the single’s success, Capaldi released his debut album, Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent, which topped the UK Albums Chart for six weeks and solidified his place as one of the most prominent voices in contemporary pop music.
Capaldi’s musical journey began early. He learned to play drums and guitar at the age of two and was performing in pubs by the age of nine. By seventeen, he had committed fully to a career in music. His early talent caught the attention of his manager through a bedroom recording he uploaded to SoundCloud. Before achieving mainstream success, he toured with well-known artists including Sam Smith, Niall Horan, Rag’n’Bone Man, and Kodaline, honing his stage presence and songwriting skills.
Despite his professional achievements, Capaldi has faced significant health challenges. In 2023, he took an indefinite break from touring to focus on his mental and physical well-being. The decision followed a difficult performance at the Glastonbury Festival, where he experienced an episode connected to his recently diagnosed Tourette’s syndrome. Earlier that year, he had suffered a panic attack during a concert in Chicago, leaving him unable to finish the show. During his hiatus, Capaldi devoted himself to therapy and personal healing, describing the experience as a turning point that forced him to confront his challenges and ultimately strengthened his resilience.
Capaldi made a highly emotional return to music in June 2025 with a surprise performance at the Glastonbury Festival. He debuted his new single, "Survive," which quickly reached the top of the UK Singles Chart. The song reflected his personal struggles and journey toward recovery. Following this, he embarked on a UK tour, performing new tracks alongside his classic hits. His performances were candid and heartfelt, with moments of visible emotional struggle, yet he ended his shows on a lighter note, reconnecting with his characteristic humor and charm.
Of Scottish and Italian descent, Capaldi is also related to actor Peter Capaldi, his second cousin once removed, who appeared in the music video for "Someone You Loved." In his personal life, he has been in a relationship with Scottish actress Ellie MacDowall since 2023. Capaldi’s story is one of early talent, global success, and personal resilience, reflecting both the triumphs and vulnerabilities of life in the spotlight.
