After nearly two-hundred live performances spanning two international tours, Louis Tomlinson is celebrating the end of era on the road that spanned three years. On Thursday, the musician shared Live, a record captured across 15 different shows in 15 different cities.
“I’ve been lucky enough to spend the last 3 years touring the world twice over, the feeling I get sharing those live moments will be with me forever,” Tomlinson shared in a statement. “To be able to record these songs from all over the world and put them out as an album like this feels so special, and a real tribute to the fans who make each and every show feel unique and incredible. Thank you! Enjoy!”
The album features live performances from both the Louis Tomlinson World Tour — which was cut short in 2020 and resumed in 2022 — and the Faith in the Future World Tour, which kicked off in 2023 in support of the singer’s sophomore studio album of the same name. Combined, the tours included 170 shows in 47 countries across 5 continents.
Tomlinson captured performances of popular singles “We Made It” and “Walls” from his debut solo album Walls and “Written All Over Your Face,” “Silver Tongues,” and “Out of My System” from Faith in the Future. The album features recordings from London, Nashville, Vancouver, Barcelona, Chicago, Budapest, Paris, and more.
The digital version of Live is available now, with physical editions for the record set for release on Aug. 23 on a double CD and 2LP picture disc vinyl.

Louis Tomlinson’s impressive music has once again sent fans wild.
The chart-topper has today announced a brand new album following days of speculation. Tomlinson, 32, has had fans involved in a global puzzle over the past few days, with secret locations across the world revealing hidden messages. But more information has since been released and fans struggled to contain their excitement.
News of Louis’ latest record, LIVE, comes two days after the Doncaster-born musician bagged Artist of the Year at the Northern Music Awards, which has been dubbed the ‘BRITs of the north’. Since releasing his debut solo album Walls, in 2020, Louis has gone on to achieve success outside of his former band, One Direction.
His debut record was certified Silver, having peaked at Number 4 on the Official UK Charts, as well as bagging two Top Ten singles and a Number One album, Faith in the Future. But he’s set to continue smashing boundaries with LIVE. The 15-track record features a song recorded in different cities at different shows from the past three years.
Over the course of three years, Louis has performed over 170 shows, flying to 47 countries and five continents for his Louis Tomlinson World Tour (2020 - 2022) and Faith in the Future World Tour (2023 - 2024). LIVE, features some of his biggest tracks including Out Of My System, Walls and We Made It, as well as various tracks loved by his fans, Louies, live for the first time.
Speaking about the record, Tomlinson commented: “I’ve been lucky enough to spend the last 3 years touring the world twice over. The feeling I get sharing those live moments will be with me forever. To be able to record these songs from all over the world and put them out as an album like this feels so special, and a real tribute to the fans who make each and every show feel unique and incredible. Thank you!:
But adding to the mystery, Tomlinson is releasing in both digital, which is out now and physical form. The Physical edition which is released on August 23 includes a double CD and LP picture disc vinyl, along with a Tour Book, with fans being able to submit messages to be included in the publication.
One track which will certainly delight fans is a recording of One Direction’s mega-hit, Where Do Broken Hearts Go. Fans have since shared their excitement, with one writing: ”'This record is a true collaboration between me and you’, SCREAMING, CRYING.“ A second penned: "I’m fully sobbing right now.”
“This live album is a celebration of you coming so far, performing in arenas like O2 and now some of the largest stadiums, and the artist-fan relationship we share. I’m so proud of everything you have achieved,” commented a third.
Louis, who has experimented with his sound, including punk rock, indie pop, EDM and soft rock is currently preparing for the final shows of his Faith In The Future World Tour which he kicked off on May 26, 2023, with his final show being on September 8, 2024, as part of Superbloom Festival.
