Lewis Capaldi releases new music amid speculation of Glastonbury set
He has released a new song titled Survive and alongside a video montage, with the song playing, he wrote on Instagram: 'It's been a while…'.
Last month, he performed on stage for the first time in two years at a charity gig in Edinburgh to raise funds for suicide prevention.
Capaldi, from Bathgate, West Lothian, has Tourette's Syndrome and released his first album in 2019, with a second album following in 2023.
On New Year's Eve in 2023, Capaldi said in a lengthy Instagram post that he would 'continue taking some time to carry on looking after myself' following the announcement he would take a break from touring after struggling with his voice during his Glastonbury Festival set earlier in the year.
Capaldi explored how the pressures of fame have affected him mentally and physically in the Netflix documentary Lewis Capaldi: How I'm Feeling Now which was released in April 2023.
His critically-acclaimed 2019 debut album Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent emerged as the biggest-selling UK album of both 2019 and 2020.
His hit songs include 2019's Someone You Loved, 2020's Before You Go and 2022's Forget Me.
This year's Glastonbury line-up features a number of acts listed as TBA, with a Friday slot on the Pyramid Stage at 4.55pm speculated as one Capaldi could perform in, but this has not been confirmed.
Also among the music stars rumoured to be performing a secret set at Glastonbury is New Zealand singer Lorde, whose fourth studio album, Virgin, has just been released.

Netflix unveils first look at Cillian Murphy in role that 'broke his heart'
Netflix has released a trailer and images of the Peaky Blinders star as a headteacher. Peaky Blinders and Oppenheimer star Cillian Murphy is taking on one of his most poignant roles to date as he plays the head of a struggling school in a new Netflix film. The streamer has just released the official first look images for the film, which is a reimagining of Max Porter's Sunday Times bestseller, Shy. Set in the mid-90s, the film follows a significant day in the life of headteacher Steve (Murphy) and his students at a last-chance reform school amidst a world that has forsaken them. The synopsis reads: "As Steve fights to protect the school's integrity and impending closure, we witness him grappling with his own mental health. "In parallel to Steve's struggles, we meet Shy (Jay Lycurgo), a troubled teen caught between his past and what lies ahead as he tries to reconcile his inner fragility with his impulse for self-destruction and violence." The film in question is Steve, which will air in select cinemas on September 19 ahead of its Netflix release on October 3. The cast also includes Tracey Ullman, Simbi Ajikawo and Emily Watson, as well as Roger Allam. Academy Award winner Murphy said he was drawn to Porter's writing, with the author also penning the scripts for Steve. He and Murphy previously collaborated on the stage adaptation of Porter's Grief is the Thing with Feathers and the short film All of This Unreal Time. On reading Shy for the first time, he told Deadline: "Max gave me that book in a proof edition before he finished it, and again it just broke my heart. "They're the sorts of things I love as a reader and as a performer, so I really wanted to do something with him." Fans have already flocked to the comments section for the official trailer, expressing their excitement. @KabirM-k1n said: "Looks awesome! Anything with Murphy carries weight at this point." Steve will air in select cinemas on September 19 ahead of its Netflix release on October 3

Netflix fans turn off 'incredibly disgusting' new comedy minutes in despite star-studded cast
It was created by a five-time Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Netflix viewers have reported switching off a brand new comedy film on the platform just minutes in, slamming it as "insufferable" and "incredibly disgusting." Released on the streamer today (August 13), Fixed follows a dog named Bull (voiced by Adam Devine) who discovers he's about to be neutered and has one last hurrah with his friends. He also intends to win over the show dog he is in love with next door, Honey (Kathryn Hahn) before his operation. The animated comedy was created by Genndy Tartakovsky, a five-time Emmy Award-winning filmmaker and the mind behind Dexter's Laboratory and Samurai Jack. Netflix's synopsis reads: " From visionary director Genndy Tartakovsky comes Fixed, an adult animated comedy about Bull, an average, all-around good dog who discovers he's going to be neutered in the morning! "As the gravity of this life-altering event sets in, Bull realizes he needs one last adventure with his pack of best friends as these are the last 24 hours with his balls! What could go wrong...?" Its glittering cast also includes Idris Elba as Rocco, Fred Armisen as Fetch and Bobby Moynihan as Lucky. However, despite the star power on board, it has failed to land with audiences right away. "Fixed genuinely is insufferable and I'm only like five minutes in," one viewer began, adding: "I genuinely hate this. This is just corny sex jokes. I don't wanna see an animated dog's b******* flap while he's humping a grandma's leg." Another viewer gave up after watching only the trailer, saying: "It seemed incredibly disgusting (like worse than Big Mouth) just from the three second clip I watched while hovering over the title. Will absolutely not be investigating further," while a third unimpressed Netflix fan shared: "I still wanna know HOW were the voice actors talked into doing this." Not every viewer had a visceral reaction to the film however. Jumping to its defence, one fan shared: "Just watched it. It's passable, wasn't as bad as the trailers made me think it would be but it's not a masterpiece by any means, great animation though." Speaking to Netflix's Tudum, Tartakovsky explained how the cast came to be: "Some of the material is a bit raunchy so we had to find people that were receptive to our sense of humor, and boy, did we. 'I remember a moment where Kathryn Hahn read the script and called us — she wanted her character to be as raunchy as the other guys. It was a great note. We then rewrote her character to be reflective of that idea and she absolutely killed it.'
