Calum Scott

Calum Scott is an English singer-songwriter from Hull, England. He began singing professionally in 2011, winning a Hull-based competition in 2013 and joining a Maroon 5 tribute act called Maroon 4. Scott also had a role as half of the duo The Experiment, releasing their first single in September 2014.

Calum’s big break came when he auditioned for UK-based talent show Britain’s Got Talent in 2015 with a cover of Robyn’s 2010 single “Dancing On My Own”. The audition received immensely positive reception and took Scott to the final of the show. His audition video has been watched over 70 million times as of August 2016.

Calum went on to record a studio version of “Dancing On My Own” in 2016, which received large amounts of radio support. Scott also performed a few shows in LA in early 2016, ultimately landing him his first major label recording contract with US label, Capitol, under whom he now plans to release his debut album. “Dancing On My Own” was then re-released by the label and has since beaten the original track’s highest charting position in the UK, peaking at #2 on the official UK charts.
