Capaldi to make UAE debut on Jan.17
Lewis Capaldi was a child prodigy.
The iconic cultural landmark will enthrall music lovers across the UAE from December 2019 to April 2020, hosting a galaxy of top Arab and international music artists throughout the season.
The 23-year-old Scottish singer-songwriter was a child prodigy, playing drums and guitar at the age of two and performing in restaurants by the time he was nine years old.
His official musical career began at 17 when he acquired a manager after posting a song he had recorded on his mobile phone online.
His skyrocketing fame was evident when his UK concert, part of his 2020 world-wide tour, sold out in less than a minute.
His hit “Someone You Loved” video has clocked 75 million views on YouTube.
His debut album Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent, released in March this year, remained at the top of the UK Albums Chart for six weeks and achieved gold status in the UK only two weeks after release.
Doors open at 7:00pm and the show will start at 9:00pm. Tickets can be booked online at https://Platinumlist.ae.
Al Majaz Amphitheatre has emerged as the popular cultural and entertainment destination of the Emirate with its hosting of world-class cultural events and concerts featuring internationally acclaimed artists and superstars from across the Arab world and around the world.
