Over his career, he has collaborated with the likes of Anne-Marie, Sigala, Rudimental, Marshmello & many more. As one of the world’s biggest streaming artists, he has over 37 million monthly listeners on Spotify alone.
2016’s ‘Say You Won't Let Go’ became his breakthrough hit in the US and was officially the UK's most streamed song of the year, going on to be enjoyed via over 4 billion streams. Other huge hit singles include ‘Impossible’, ‘Can I Be Him’, ‘Sun Comes Up’, ‘Naked’, ‘Empty Space’, ‘Rewrite the Stars’, ‘Falling Like the Stars’, ‘Train Wreck’ and ‘Lasting Lover’, which are all certified platinum records. The song ‘Cars Outside’ is currently becoming another global hit for James.
His fifth, brand new studio album ‘Bitter Sweet Love’ will be out on 26th January 2024.
Sophie Able, General Manager of Newmarket Racecourses, said
“Having played a brilliant show at Newmarket Nights back in 2014, we’re excited to be welcoming James Arthur and his fantastic live show to the racecourse again next year. 2024 is shaping up to be our best year yet and we can’t wait to reveal who else we have in store for next summer…”
Jack Pryor, General Manager, Market Rasen Racecourse, said
“Following the return of live music to the racecourse last year with the HUGE show from Tom Grennan, we can’t wait to welcome another massive British star to Market Rasen. James Arthur has become a household name since his last show here 10 years ago - his Rasen Rocks headline is sure to be a hit and a firm highlight of the summer season.”
James Arthur said
“Playing live is one of my absolute favourite things to do, and it’s made even better when it’s outdoor shows in the summer evenings. I had an amazing time at Newmarket Nights and Rasen Rocks 10 years ago and can’t wait to see you all in August!”
