Fans are eagerly awaiting Lewis Capaldi's second album.
It follows the smash-hit success of his debut, 'Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent'.
He has been working with Dan Smith from Bastille for the new record, and has now added a Snow Patrol star to the roster too.
Snow Patrol's Johnny McDaid is working with Lewis on his new album.
He has also been working with OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder and JC Stewart.
McDaid has also written songs for Ed Sheeran, Robbie Williams, Alicia Keys.
An insider told The Sun: “Lewis understands people are expecting big things from his second record — and he has put so much hard work into it.
“He is an amazing songwriter on his own but getting people like Johnny involved too has taken things to the next level.
“Lewis has written so many songs that it has just been hard to whittle it down to a tracklist for the album. But it’s all coming together now and there’s not long to wait.”
Dan Smith said he loves "hanging out" with Lewis.
He said: "I spent a few days doing some writing with Lewis. I know that he's taking his time and wants to get it right.
"It was lovely to see him and he's as f****** hilarious as ever - never turn down the chance to hang out with Lewis."
Ryan said: "I was playing the songs an hour ago in the car and it’s just like, goosebumps! The guy could sing a random song in Spanish and it would still give me goosebumps. He’s so good.”
Lewis is also due to play a series of festivals.
