Luke Evans will release his sophomore album ‘A Song For You’ later this year.
Following the success of his 2019 debut ‘At Last’, the actor, singer and songwriter’s new LP is preceded by the single Horizons Blue.
Of the release, he says: “I wrote it in Florida during lockdown, as the sun was coming up over the Atlantic. I was sitting on the beach and the horizon was as blue as the sea. You couldn’t see the difference between the two.

“Then three hours later, I zoomed with Amy [Wadge, co-writer] in Pontypridd and we completed a demo within two hours. That’s really amazing for me, because I’d never written. I knew that I could do it, but I just needed to be guided.”
Along with the rest of the 14-song set, the track is backed by Prague’s Philharmonic Orchestra, with additional support from the Treorchy Male Voice Choir.
Also featured on the album are duets with Nicole Kidman on Say Something and Charlotte Church on Come What May.
“I just feel really lucky as a singer, my first love, to do it again,” adds Luke, “and to sing these magical songs on an album which I’ll have for the rest of my life.
“I want everyone else to share that joy, too.”
‘A Song For You’ is out November 4 and available to pre-order now.
