Today, Louis Tomlinson announced the North
American tour dates for his headlining world tour, which will kick off at Mohegan Sun Arena at 7:00pm on Friday, May 26th.
Tickets are $99.50, $49.50, $39.50, and $29.50 and go on sale Friday, November 11th at 10:00am via ticketmaster.com. Tickets will also be available at the Mohegan Sun Box Office beginning Saturday, November 12th, subject to availability.
Yesterday, Louis Tomlinson unveiled one final taste of his upcoming album with the release of “Silver Tongues,” a rousing earworm, bursting at the seams with joyful nostalgic energy. Written with Joe Cross (Lana Del Ray, Courteeners) and Theo Hutchcraft from Hurts, the track is another bold step forward sonically for Louis.
This Friday sees the release of Louis’ long-awaited second album Faith In The Future. The title epitomizes Louis’ optimistic worldview, producing a collection of songs designed for the live environment. After spending the first portion of his adult life working 100 miles per hour, Louis reveled in taking his time to make sure he got his sophomore album right. He’s made Faith In The Future on his watch, and collaborators include Mike Crossey (The 1975, Wolf Alice), Rob Harvey, Dan Grech (The Killers, The Vaccines, Halsey), Nico Rebscher (Alice Merton) and the aforementioned Joe Cross and Theo Hutchcraft.
In celebration of the new album, Louis will perform “Silver Tongues” on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon tomorrow on NBC at 11:35pm. He will also celebrate the album release with a special, one-night only, sold-out show tomorrow night at New York City’s Irving Plaza.
Featuring both the anthemic first single “Bigger Than Me” and Indie Punk fan favorite “Out Of My System,” the album begins in emphatic style with the pounding drums of “The Greatest,” which Tomlinson says is a celebration of the relationship he has amassed with his avid fanbase. Other stand out tracks include Indie floor-filler “Written All Over Your Face,” blissful roof-down summer anthem “Lucky Again,” tearjerkers “Angels Fly” and “Holding On To Heartache,” alongside the retrospective “Common People,” a beautiful and poignant homage to his hometown Doncaster.
There’s a delicate balance to Faith In The Future with Louis exhibiting the full capability of his talents whilst never refraining from sounding unapologetically like him for a nanosecond. “All This Time” sees Louis dip his toes back into Dance music, whilst “She Is Beauty We Are World Class” is a full-blown Dance track perfect for an Iberian sunset, yet still feels genuine and honest.
Tomlinson’s debut album Walls was an album he needed to get off his chest, but he now has uncompromisingly expanded his wings and evolved.
In 2021, Louis was listed in the Guinness Book Of World Records for breaking the record for the most livestreamed concert by a solo male artist. Louis hosted one of the biggest live stream concerts ever held, selling more than 160,000 tickets to fans in more than 110 countries and raising funds for several important charities and touring crew affected by the pandemic. Following the huge success of the festival’s 2021 debut, August also saw the return of Louis’ highly successful The Away From Home Festival. The one-day event was staged this year at the stunning Marenostrum Fuengirola in Malaga, Spain, hosting 18,000 fans and selling out in just 24 hours with a line-up of some of the best new British bands.
