Calum Scott

Calum Scott (born 12 October 1988) is an English singer and songwriter. He rose to prominence in April 2015 after competing on the ITV talent contest Britain's Got Talent, where he performed a cover of Robyn's hit "Dancing on My Own" and earned a Golden Buzzer from Simon Cowell. After placing sixth in the contest, he released his own version of the song as a single the following year, which peaked at number two on the UK singles chart and became Britain's best-selling single of summer 2016. Scott later signed with Capitol and in 2017, released the single "You Are the Reason", which amassed more than one billion views on YouTube. His debut album, Only Human, followed in 2018 and reached number four on the UK Albums Chart. Scott achieved his second UK top five single with "Where Are You Now", a 2021 collaboration with Lost Frequencies.
