Nova Entertainment’s world famous Nova’s Red Room events have kicked off for the new year already. The first performance was held in Melbourne and featured hit Scottish singer-songwriter Lewis Capaldi.
The 22-year-old singer-songwriter performed in front of over 300 fans in an intimate show held at the Chapel Off Chapel in Prahran.
Capaldi is in Australia touring with two sold out shows after the 2019 release of his debut album Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent went top 10 in Australia.
