Bloom is the debut extended play by Scottish singer-songwriter Lewis Capaldi. It was released as a digital download on 20 October 2017.[1] It includes the singles "Fade", "Bruises", and "Lost on You", as well as the song "Mercy". Whilst the EP did not chart itself, "Bruises" charted at number six on the UK Singles Chart,[a] whilst "Fade" and "Lost on You" peaked at number 52 and number 38, respectively, on the UK Streaming Chart.[b][c][4] Additionally, "Mercy" was certified Silver in the United Kingdom.[5]

Background

Announcing the extended play, Capaldi explains it as "a collection of songs that captures the last year of my life, and features songs I recorded in London, New York and Los Angeles. [The] Songs 'Fade' & 'Mercy' were recorded only a few months ago so they're almost as fresh to me as anybody else listening."[6]

Critical reception

Rolling Stone France said, "By relying on the risky but sometimes rewarding formula of extreme simplicity, the Scottish singer delivers his promise and follows in the footsteps of James Bay and LP."[7][d] Wonderland Magazine praised the EP, stating that "the four tracks tear at your heartstrings and leave you breathless. But, you know, in a good way."[8] The Independent declared that they were "obsessed" with Bloom, and everything from it ranging "from the sombre piano to his soaring, powerful voice that is bound to draw comparisons to the likes of Paolo Nutini, Jack Savoretti and Tom Grennan."[9]
