It has been 12 months since <a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/t/lewis-capaldi/">Lewis Capaldi</a> released Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent, the wildly successful debut album that turned him into pop’s reigning prince of heartbreak and despair. In those 12 months, the 23-year-old Scottish singer-songwriter with the almighty bellow has played shows around the world, conquered the charts, and earned both his first Grammy nomination (Song of the Year, for the smash hit “Someone You Loved”) and the kind of ubiquity that makes you think his music was built into the foundation of every grocery store, pharmacy, and fast-casual restaurant in the world. Twelve months of all that, and now Capaldi is exactly where he should be: living at home with his mom and dad.
“I’m ready to literally fight my parents,” Capaldi says from his home in Bathgate, Scotland, a small town between Edinburgh and Glasgow. “It’s gonna come to a showdown between us before the end of this, and I’m quite glad for it.”
