Lewis Capaldi popped in for a yarn and honestly, it felt like catching up with an old mate at the pub. Tim grilled him about life on the road, writing one of his most vulnerable songs and why releasing it scared him more than actually creating it. Lewis opened up about taking a proper break from songwriting because he felt “creatively bankrupt” and is gearing up to start fresh in January. He also laughed about his meteoric rise from sinking beers at Splendour to billboards in Times Square and shared why having mates like Yungblud and Ed Sheeran in his corner keeps him sane. Plus, he told the very wholesome story of discovering Aussie opener Fletcher Kent and why he knew immediately he wanted him on the tour.
