Chart-topping BRIT and Ivor Novello-nominated singer-songwriter Tom Grennan today announces full details of his third album ‘What Ifs & Maybes’, out on 9th June 2023 via Insanity Records. The album is matched with the euphoric, gospel-inspired new single ‘Here’. Released today, the song symbolises a story of solidarity in trying times, and a crucial message of togetherness. Listen here.
Speaking about he new single, Tom said: “With what’s going on in the world, with so many people struggling, affected financially, by COVID, by loads of different things, it’s one of those songs that helps you believe that there is somebody in your life that is going to be there for you in the struggle. There’s the battle of everything. But when it’s shared with somebody else, you’re doing it together, not just on your own. So that’s what it’s about: if I’m here for you, then please be here for me.”
‘What Ifs & Maybes’ is the story of Tom Grennan living his best creative life. An artist who knows he’s just finished writing and recording the biggest, boldest, best set of songs of his shooting-star career. A songwriter with a purpose, to embrace, encourage and lift listeners with lyrical positivity, brightness – and sky-scraping choruses to sing to the rafters. His high-flying, mood-boosting third album is a set of songs energised by the fact that, at work, at play, at home, he’s blissfully happy. Galvanised by the potential that anything – thrillingly – can happen.
On naming the album, Tom said: “I’ve called the album What Ifs & Maybes because you never know what’s going to happen. So go with your gut. Go with your heart, not your head. Sometimes the unknown brings love and beauty and colour. Don’t be afraid to jump into the unknown. It’s exciting!”
The news of Tom’s new album comes shortly after he was nominated for the 2023 BRIT Award for Alternative Rock/Rock Act, rounding off a pivotal year and marking his third consecutive BRIT nomination following Song of the Year with Mastercard for his international smash hit ‘Little Bit Of Love’, and Alternative/Rock Act, at the 2022 ceremony.
‘What Ifs & Maybes’ follows the success of Tom’s breakthrough UK #1 and BRIT-certified GOLD album ‘Evering Road’, which included platinum-selling anthems ‘Little Bit Of Love’ and ‘By Your Side’ — both of which scored in the Top Three most played songs of 2021. Tom already counts four UK Top 10 singles to his name. And a hat-trick of his 2022 songs, ‘Remind Me’, ‘Not Over Yet’ with KSI and ‘Lionheart (Fearless)’ with Joel Corry, have all been named in The Biggest Songs of 2022 by The Official Big Top 40.
Beginning in March 2023, the What Ifs & Maybes UK Tour will see Tom perform his first headline arena shows, including London’s O2, and has already seen Tom praised for his efforts to keep ticket prices low and accessible for all fans. Tom and his team worked to pull the cost of tickets down, dismissing all VIP and platinum ticket options across the tour.
Tom’s first headline arena shows will follow a 2022 live season of global proportions. Stepping up to festival headliner status in front of a 30,000 capacity crowd at Godiva Festival, and completing a sold-out headline tour of North America and two of Australia, where he is recognised as a double-platinum artist. Performing to huge crowds on the Isle Of Wight Festival mainstage, a homecoming headline show to 15,000 fans at Bedford Park, the Radio 1 Big Weekend, Margate’s Dreamland, TRNSMT, Kendall Calling, Boardmasters and more.
