The record was released on September 22 on Island Records and JP will kick off his autumn tour tonight – the biggest of his career – with a headline show at Birmingham’s O2 Institute. JP has achieved two UK top 10 singles this year, the Jonas Blue smash Perfect Strangers, which he co-wrote, and the inescapable radio hit September Song. He has notched up an incredible 10 million single units worldwide and an extraordinary 1 billion streams.
His debut album Raised Under Grey Skies includes the smash hit September Song, current radio favourite Passport Home and Momma’s Prayers, a collaboration with Stormzy.
JP says: “It’s been a life time in the making and a long journey from playing to a handful of people at Manchester open mic nights, to a sold out European tour! The most amazing thing is that so many people have been there since day one and I can’t thank them enough for their support.”
