**Loyle Carner’s Triumphant 2023**
2023 was nothing short of monumental for Loyle Carner. From gracing the grand stages of massive festivals to dominating venues across the UK and beyond, his performances have been nothing short of spectacular. A career-defining moment was his show at the Wembley OVO Arena in London, a testament to his ever-growing fanbase and unmatched live energy. Summer saw him headline Glastonbury’s West Holts stage, Primavera Sound, and the legendary Royal Albert Hall, where he joined the ranks of iconic performers over the past century. His electrifying live shows, often featuring special guests and an incredible live band, have sold out rapidly across the capital, and All Points East promises to be the next chapter in his live performance legacy.
**A Stellar Career and Unmatched Talent**
With multiple Mercury and Brits nominations, NME Awards, and appearances in global brand campaigns (think New Balance, Nike, YSL), Loyle Carner’s rise to the top has been meteoric. His critically acclaimed 2022 album “hugo” soared to number 3 on the UK album chart, cementing his status as a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.
“hugo” is a 10-track masterpiece, blending urgent delivery with cinematic production. Carner dives deep into personal and political realms, crafting a soundscape that is both a rallying cry for his generation and a profound exploration of his own identity. As a mixed-race Black man, artist, father, and son, Carner’s narrative is as compelling as his beats.
**A Legacy of Influence**
Known for his deeply engaging live performances and collaborations, Carner has played a pivotal role in the evolution of the UK rap scene. His impact on music, dedication to significant causes, and ongoing contributions to the industry have solidified his reputation as a respected and influential figure in British music. With over 790 million global streams, 657,000 album sales, 40 million YouTube views, and 800,000 social media followers, Loyle Carner continues to prove he’s one of the most accomplished British rappers in history.

The All Points East performance will be Carner’s only London live date for 2024, and it’s set to be his biggest yet. Tickets are on sale via AMEX, with the presale running until general tickets go live at 10am on Thursday, 23 November. Grab yours at www.allpointseastfestival.com.
