To celebrate the launch of his new album, Light It Up, Will Young is embarking on his most intimate tour yet – taking shape as an up close and personal evening of acoustic performances, stories and conversation.

The forthcoming album – out on 9 August – is Will’s return to “joyous pop”. The 10-track collection sees the acclaimed singer-songwriter team up with new collaborators, pHD, the Scandinavian pop production/writing duo who has worked with Little Mix. He also reunites with Andy Cato of Groove Armada and long-term writing partners Jim and Mima Elliot (who worked on Will’s defining album, Echoes).
