Lewis Capaldi Performs ‘Survive,’ Talks Stage Return and Upcoming EP on ‘Good Morning America’

Lewis Capaldi dropped in to Good Morning America on Monday morning (July 7) for his first TV performance in more than two years as part of the show’s Summer Concert Series. In addition to performing a pair of songs with a full band during the visit — including an emotional run through his new single, “Survive,” as well as his breakthrough 2019 smash “Someone You Loved,” the most-streamed song of all time in the U.K. — Capaldi broke some news during the chat.

“I don’t know about an album, but hopefully it will be… I’m doing an EP at some point this year,” he said, joking that he wasn’t sure if he was allowed to share the news, but was going to do it anyway. “And then an album will follow maybe next year.” Capaldi did not provide the name of the EP or a targeted release date, but he also teased that there will be a another new song later this summer and then, “another song after that and another song after that until the day I die.”

Capaldi gingerly stepped back into the spotlight at the Glastonbury Festival on June 27 with a brief set two years after the 28-year-old’s last full show, which was also at the famed festival in 2023. During the previous gig, he’d struggled with a strained vocal cord and his Tourette’s syndrome diagnosis, which manifested in a series of tics during his performance. That same day Capaldi announced that he was taking a break from touring to focus on his health.

“The fact that this probably won’t come as a surprise doesn’t make it any easier to write, but I’m very sorry to let you know I’m going to be taking a break from touring for the foreseeable future,” he wrote to fans in June 2023. “I used to be able to enjoy every second of shows like this and I’d hoped 3 weeks away would sort me out. But the truth is I’m still learning to adjust to the impact of my Tourette’s and on Saturday it became obvious that I need to spend much more time getting my mental and physical health in order so that I can keep doing everything I love for a long time to come.” Prior to his 2023 Glastonbury set, Capaldi had canceled a series of planned, sold out shows in Glasgow, Dublin, Norway and London.

The singer discussed the intensive therapy he’s been undergoing over the past two years on GMA, saying that his time out of the spotlight has involved, “lots and lots of therapy. It’s been nice, talking a lot about myself. Crying quite a lot over the last two years… I’ve just been locking in and putting it all together and here we are.”
