Sam Smith’s latest studio album ‘Gloria’ arrived in late January this year. The record scored a four-star review from NME‘s Nick Levine, who wrote: “Smith’s soulful voice is stunning throughout, and it’s surely a sign of confidence that several songs feature such prominent and intricate backing vocals. When you’re comfortable in yourself, you don’t always have to push to the front. Sam Smith has never sounded better because they’ve never been more themselves.”
Sam Smith last toured Asia in 2018, where they performed across Singapore, the Philippines, South Korea, Japan and Thailand.
