James Arthur will be bringing his upcoming UK tour to The O2 on Wednesday 18 February 2026.

Following the emotional depth of his recent single "Celebrate," James Arthur returns with "Karaoke," out now. The track, the latest from his highly anticipated album PISCES, offers a bold departure from the introspective vulnerability of "Celebrate." With a grunge-inspired guitar riff at its core, "Karaoke" pulses with energy as James channels raw emotion into a plea for a partner to embrace their wild side, despite the scars of a past relationship.

James says, “I had the best time I’ve ever had on the Bitter Sweet Love world tour last year so I couldn’t be more thrilled to be hitting the road once again for the Pisces world tour. I hope to see some familiar faces back again and hopefully some new ones. Can’t wait to get in my feels with you all and have a big old sing song in some gargantuan rooms. See you on the road!”

"Karaoke" defies expectations, with its title almost serving as a red herring. The track’s relentless guitar line is a far cry from the carefree karaoke image, instead delving into the emotional turbulence of a relationship. James sings the chorus like a mantra: “I want you dancing on the table, want you making a scene / I want you acting like a nightmare while you look like a dream,” expressing the push-pull of love and desire amidst unresolved trauma.

This single marks another bold step in James’ artistic journey, as he continues to explore themes of vulnerability, trauma, and the complexity of human relationships. "Karaoke" is a testament to his growth as an artist, blending electrifying rock influences with his signature raw emotion and storytelling.

The release of "Karaoke" sets the stage for James Arthur’s sixth studio album PISCES on April 25, 2025. With PISCES, James Arthur dives deeper into his personal struggles, blending atmospheric production with his powerful, raspy vocals to create a collection that is as introspective as it is sonically adventurous.

James Arthur has cemented himself as one of the biggest names in contemporary pop and soul. He has amassed over 38 million monthly listeners on Spotify and has had 11 Platinum singles in the UK for hits like “Impossible,” “Can I Be Him,” “Naked,” “Rewrite the Stars,” and “Lasting Lover.” His recent collaboration with Kelly Clarkson on “From the Jump” further expands his reach to new audiences around the world.
