BAFTA, Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actor, Damian Lewis is heading to Esquires, for a rare, intimate show in support of his brand new album 'Sweet Chaos'.
Damian Lewis released his acclaimed debut album Mission Creep in 2023, earning praise for its soulful vocals, rich instrumentation, and emotional honesty. Hailed by critics as “beautifully
written and performed” (Line Of Best Fit) and “a warm, rich debut,” (Financial Times) the record marked him as a genuine new voice in British music and established Lewis as a songwriter with something urgent and real to say.
Sweet Chaos is the album that follows from a place of hard-won clarity. Written two years on, it is bolder, broader, and at times more raw. “The first album was quiet and tender,” Lewis says. “This new album is a bit angrier in places. You don’t know these things until you listen back: the extent to which your state of mind pervades the thing.”
Lewis first honed his musical instincts busking across Europe in his youth - an experience that informs the raw authenticity of his work. He quickly proved his strength as a live performer, winning acclaim for his charismatic stage presence and selling out venues across the UK, alongside festival appearances including Latitude, Wilderness, Black Deer and the EFG London Jazz Festival.
