The singer-songwriter took his social media to confirm the concert at the Scala. He wrote: “I will be playing a free show in London on Friday night. We will be performing a couple of songs from the new album. Very limited capacity.”

You can purchase tickets for the show here.

It comes after Yungblud – real name Dominic Harrison – yesterday (March 18) shared his new single ‘Hello Heaven, Hello’. That marked his first single since 2024’s ‘Breakdown’ and his first track since his 2022 self-titled LP.

Elsewhere, Yungblud recently shared his thoughts on his upcoming Britpop-inspired album, saying he has “never felt more clear or been more proud to stand by anything” he has made.

Back in December, the musician spoke to NME and shared more details about his projects in the works – exclusively announcing that he had a “double album” on the way.

“The new album centres around the idea of self-love and self-reclamation that allows people to feel seen, and emit this light. You can be seen for who you truly are, no matter where you’re from or what you believe… That’s what I needed to write an album about,” he said.

Last March he spoke to NME to give the lowdown on his next album. He named the likes of Oasis, The Verve, Primal Scream, My Chemical Romance, David Bowie and Madonna as inspirations.

Harrison noted that the mantra of the record would be: “Come together, look each other in the eye, be human”, as opposed saying “Fuck you, this is the world we’ve got to get to.”

Doubling down on the status of the record as a concrete concept album, he went on: “It’s a ’Tommy’, it’s a ‘Quadrophenia’ [The Who]. It’s ‘A Night At The Opera’ [Queen]. It’s a ‘Black Parade’ [My Chemical Romance]. It’s an ‘Urban Hymns’. It’s a thing that’s intended to be listened to from start to finish, and it’s pushed me harder and made me gut myself harder than anything before.

“We locked ourselves in a studio in Leeds and just felt. We shut the world out instead of asking, ‘What’s popping on this?’ ‘What’s the state of art’ or whatever. Fuck that. Could this album have been written 50 years ago? Could this album be written in 50 years time? Fucking everything else. It just is.”

In other Yungblud-related news, the second instalment of his own festival, Bludfest, will take place this summer and see appearances from Chase Atlantic, Denzel Curry, Blackbear and former NME Cover stars Rachel Chinouriri and Peach PRC.
