Yungblud makes his live return at intimate London gig

The globally recognised singer-songwriter Yungblud made his live return last night with a surprise gig at Scala in London, where he played a short set of songs from his forthcoming album, including the nine minute epic single ‘Hello Heaven, Hello’.

The 27 year old artist from Doncaster, whose last two albums went to number 1 in the UK and broke into the Billboard top 100, announced the last minute gig on social media on Wednesday, giving fans the chance to secure free tickets online.

Yungblud took to the stage amidst rapturous applause at the packed London venue, opening with the brand-new ‘Hello Heaven, Hello’, which premiered as BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record on Wednesday evening.

The artist took a moment to address the crowd after the first song, announcing, ‘It’s f*cking good to be back, before asking ‘are you ready to hear some songs off the new record?’ He then revealed the name of an unreleased, Blur-esque banger, stating, “‘This song’s called ‘Lovesick Lullaby’”, before launching into the uptempo anthem which had the room in a frenzy.
