Early on a Friday morning before he gave Jordan North a wet shave, Capital's Jimmy Hill took Tom Grennan around London on the back of a tuk tuk, or a 'rickshaw'.
Promoting his new single 'Higher', Tom said he feels like he's entering a new era of music. Explaining the "trajectory" that he's currently on he said: "This whole new period of music from being in the studio starting it to it now coming out, I'm just ready to go.
"I feel like I'm an athlete who has been training for the olympics and I've had shots at the title, I've had shots but I feel like I haven't fully got there.

"But now my stars are aligning and I've worked so hard to get where I am personally and career wise and I feel like this is my time now to go and get gold," he said.
2024 has been a big year for Tom as he got married! He told Jimmy it was the best day of his life, before revealing that he not only did a speech, he wrote his wife Danniella Carraturo a song.
Speaking about his extremely romantic gesture he said: "So I did a big speech and then I wrote a song, and I was like, 'do I sing this or do I not' and I did it and the whole place was in floods of tears."
Tom's last album 'What Ifs and Maybes' dropped in 2023 and his latest single 'Higher' is out now.
