About Will Young

Multi-award-winning British pop star and actor Will Young returns with his ninth studio album, Light It Up, a shimmering blend of 70s and 80s soulful pop with a modern twist, out now via BMG. Featuring the euphoric lead single Falling Deep and the heartfelt ballad The Worst, the album marks Will’s first collection of originals in five years. Light It Up is a testament to Will’s magnetic vocals and storytelling prowess, blending confessional lyrics with infectious melodies. From dancefloor-ready tracks like Talk About It and Feels Just Like A Win to introspective moments such as The Worst and the anthemic title track Light It Up, the album explores the joys and complexities of life in your 40s. Will’s illustrious career includes two BRIT Awards, an Ivor Novello, and an Olivier nomination for Cabaret. He has sold over 10 million albums worldwide, with all eight of his previous albums hitting the UK Top 3, including four at No.1. Celebrate the new album with Will’s sold-out Light It Up Live 2024 Tour, an intimate evening of acoustic performances, stories, and conversation. "I hope this album is the go-to for a dance, a cry, and a celebration," says Will. "Crafting pop music is so fun, and the challenge of singing these songs is something I’ve relished."
