Capaldi's album promise at Isle of Wight Festival

Lewis Capaldi has told Isle of Wight festivalgoers he will be making a new album and will return "as quick as I can".

The Someone You Loved singer headlined the main stage on Friday night for his first festival appearance since his 2025 Glastonbury comeback.

Former Little Mix star Perrie, who performed in the Big Top on the first full day of the festival, told the audience she was suffering from a cold following a "rowdy weekend", referring to her nuptials to footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Other acts on Friday included Wet Leg, Ash and Two Door Cinema Club.

Capaldi, who was on stage while Scotland faced Morocco in the World Cup, said: "Morocco scored within one minute. That wasn't very Scottish of them. Maybe if we cheer loudly enough they'll hear us."

He later revealed: "I'm going to make a new album and I'm going to try to come back as quick as I can. But, until then, I love you all so much. Thank you for making this possible. Thank you everyone."

The festival, at Seaclose Park, Newport, continues until Sunday.

Saturday's headliners include Calvin Harris, Teddy Swims, Rita Ora, the Sex Pistols with Frank Carter, Feeder, Rick Astley and Five.
