CALUM SCOTT PREMIERES THE VIDEO FOR “YOU ARE THE REASON” DUET VERSION WITH LEONA LEWIS

DEBUT ALBUM, ONLY HUMAN, OUT MARCH 9TH ON VIRGIN EMI UK

Breakout UK artist Calum Scott unveils the video for the duet version of “You Are The Reason” with Leona Lewis. Shot at Angel studios in London, the video is a beautiful and heartwarming collaboration between two friends - watch it BELOW.

“Working with Leona was a dream come true,” says Calum. “As a fan, I first remember watching her on TV before going on to grace the globe with her incredibly beautiful voice. Now having the honour of working with her on one of my own songs is completely surreal and the passion and raw emotion she brings to our duet makes it even more special to me. I can still hardly believe that we did it!”
 
Leona adds: “I remember the day Calum sent me this track, I sat listening at home and had it on repeat. It’s one of those powerful songs that touches your heart and such a beautiful ballad, everyone knows I love singing them! Calum’s performance on it is stunning and I loved being able to join him to make this duet version.”

“You Are The Reason” is available now for download and streaming, and is taken from Scott’s debut album, Only Human, out March 9th on Virgin EMI UK.  The single is fast approaching 110M worldwide streams combined.  

Written by Scott, Jon Maguire and Corey James Sanders, the emotionally resonant piano ballad is one of numerous songs produced by Fraser T Smith (Adele, Ellie Goulding) for his album. Scott also worked with producers Jayson DeZuzio, Oak Felder, Oscar Gorres and Phil Paul.
