Classical Soul superstar Alexis Ffrench – whose music has amassed more than 1 billion streams globally – has announced his biggest headline show to date at The London Palladium on 27 April 2027.
Renowned for bringing classical music to new audiences worldwide, Alexis has established himself as one of the genre’s most compelling live performers, selling out venues across the globe, appearing at major festivals and delivering standout performances at some of the nation’s most celebrated cultural moments, including King Charles III’s Coronation Concert and a solo televised performance at Westminster Abbey in tribute to Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
This London show will be a performance of Alexis’ forthcoming album 24, due for released in October 2026, alongside hits from throughout his career – all performed exclusively with a string orchestra.
The new album finds Alexis reflecting on what his music means to those who find solace in it – and embracing the ordinary moments it has served to soundtrack. Intended as a companion to the clockwork regularity of everyday life, each of the album’s 24 pieces guides listeners from dawn to dusk and unfolds as an intimate and immersive snapshot of a singular day.
“I want this album to reflect the everyday miracles in people’s lives,” says Alexis. Throughout his career, he’s asked one question above all others: “what do my listeners need from me?” With 24, the answer is both simple and profound: music to live by.
An artist with a special ability to create music for the soul, Alexis is a pioneering force in Classical Soul whose sound refuses to be penned in by genre, time-period, or expectations of the kind of musician he should be.
Rather than leaning into the narrow, traditional understanding of ‘classical’, Alexis instead leans outward – expansive in his perspective and drawing on a multifarious mosaic of influences that takes listeners by the hand and leads them on a journey through a world of possibility. With multiple No.1 albums and Gold-selling status in the USA for his single Bluebird, Ffrench continues to redefine the boundaries of classical music and its role in contemporary culture.
This year, Alexis also celebrates the 20th anniversary of his seminal debut album Piano Diaries. With each piece evoking the pull of a series of intimate and reflective moments, the record fused cinematic simplicity with emotionally direct and highly accessible composition.
His unique approach to music – and love of how classical sounds can serve to soundtrack everyday life – is showcased on his newly launched Classic FM series Music To Live By. Delving into the ways music can lift mood, help us unwind and bring moments of calm when they’re needed most, the show also explores how classical music has inspired a broad range of genres close to Alexis’ heart: from pop ballads to rock’n’roll, West Coast hip-hop and beyond.
