The X-Factor winner and chart-topping artist
James Arthur has cemented himself as one of the biggest names in contemporary pop and soul.
He has amassed over 38 million monthly listeners on Spotify and has had 11 Platinum singles in the UK for hits like 'Impossible, 'Can I Be Him', 'Naked', 'Rewrite the Stars', and 'Lasting Lover'. His recent collaboration with Kelly Clarkson on 'From the Jump' further expands his reach to new audiences around the world.
James’ latest album Bitter Sweet Love recently soared to the top of the charts, earning him his second No.1 album after eight years in the UK. The album’s success was celebrated with a sold-out UK and Europe arena tour, culminating in a historic performance in his hometown of Middlesbrough to an audience of 25,000 fans. His hit single 'Say You Won’t Let Go' became the UK’s most streamed song of 2016 and went on to achieve over 4 billion streams worldwide and 3 billion streams on Spotify alone, which makes it the 15th most streamed track on the platform of all time.
Following the emotional depth of his recent single 'Celebrate', James Arthur returns with 'Karaoke' out now. The track, the latest from his highly anticipated album PISCES, offers a bold departure from the introspective vulnerability of 'Celebrate'. With a grunge-inspired guitar riff at its core, "Karaoke" pulses with energy as James channels raw emotion into a plea for a partner to embrace their wild side, despite the scars of a past relationship.
The celebrated pop-soul singer will also embark on a UK arena tour in February 2026, kicking off in Nottingham on 3 February and concluding in Manchester on 21 February.
James says, “I had the best time I’ve ever had on the Bitter Sweet Love world tour last year so I couldn’t be more thrilled to be hitting the road once again for the Pisces world tour. I hope to see some familiar faces back again and hopefully some new ones. Can’t wait to get in my feels with you all and have a big old sing song in some gargantuan rooms. See you on the road!”
The release of 'Karaoke' sets the stage for James Arthur’s sixth studio album PISCES on 25 April 2025. With PISCES, James Arthur dives deeper into his personal struggles, blending atmospheric production with his powerful, raspy vocals to create a collection that is as introspective as it is sonically adventurous.
I have seen James a few times now, each time was amazing.
He was absolutely fabulous. i had went last year with my mum who was not a fan of him whatsoever but came with me as i had no one to go with. But she LOVED it and now listens to his songs 24/7! we have just purchased tickets to see him next year again! 10/10 absolutely incredible

James is a true performer, every show I've been to has had its own special feel about it.
I went to see James Arthur for the first time last March, James absolutely blew me away, his powerful, strong emotional voice was Brilliant, his interaction with his Audience was Amazing he is such a lovely person & so talented, I have been to many artists concerts but my Favourite of all I have been to was James Arthur, James is in a league of his own, his songwriting relates to a lot of people, he definitely is The BEST & I can not wait to go to many more of his concerts, James is outstanding & a Musical Genius 👏👏🎊🎉
Omg he is amazing saw him 5times last year he is totally amazing and my favorite singer I listen everyday to him in my car he has an amazing voice and exceptional performer
Words don't even begin to describe how Unbelievable James Arthur is. From his lyrics to his voice to the way he performs, everything about his music is perfect. I went to his concert at the Wyldes in Bude back in June last year and to put it short it was literally the best night of my life. I've been a fan since I was 10 years old and to see him at 14 was an unbelievable experience. Still got my fingers crossed for another tour with his upcoming album, which I have no doubt will be just as amazing as BSL.
