Lewis Capaldi Performs Smash Hit ‘Someone You Loved’ Live at The Garage
“Someone You Loved” was first played in the U.S. on SiriusXM’s The Pulse channel in December 2018.
While Lewis Capaldi may not have won Song of the Year on the GRAMMY Awards stage, his campaign for the hearts of SiriusXM and Pandora listeners is still on lock.
Earlier this month, just days before the 62nd GRAMMYs, 2019 breakout artist and 2020 nominee Capaldi performed an intimate invitation-only set at The Garage performance space in the SiriusXM Hollywood Studios, followed by a Q&A session with a select group of audience members.
This live performance, which served as a thank you to SiriusXM and Pandora’s efforts early on and through 2019 to break Capaldi in the U.S., airs on The Pulse throughout the weekend.
Capaldi and his single “Someone You Loved” had a wildly successful 2019, garnering No. 1s on the Billboard Hot 100, Top 40 Radio chart, Hot AC Radio chart, and Shazam chart, ultimately earning him a 2020 GRAMMY Award nomination in the Song of the Year category. To break through in the U.S., Capaldi got help from SiriusXM and Pandora to propel his song to the top of Billboard’s Hot 100 for three weeks, marking the first No. 1 single from a debut U.K. artist since February 2016. “Someone You Loved” was first played in the U.S. on The Pulse in December 2018. Employing the curatorial skill and audience reach of SiriusXM and Pandora, following SiriusXM’s acquisition of Pandora in early 2019, Capaldi was the first artist to receive this focused approach by the two audio platforms working together.
