British singer-songwriter Passenger (Michael Rosenberg) is officially heading to India for the first time later this year as part of his Asia tour, marking a long-awaited debut that fans across the country have eagerly anticipated.
Here’s the schedule for his India tour:
-
Delhi-NCR – November 19, DLF CyberHub
-
Mumbai – November 21, Phoenix Marketcity, Kurla
-
Bengaluru – November 22, Phoenix Marketcity
Passenger shot to worldwide fame with the emotional ballad “Let Her Go” in 2012, which remains one of the most streamed songs of all time — 2.5 billion+ streams on Spotify and 3.8 billion+ views on YouTube. The track earned him a Brit Award nomination in 2014, cementing his status as a global folk-pop icon.
Though Passenger began as a band, Rosenberg transitioned into a solo act in 2009, blending heartfelt storytelling with acoustic melodies. His most recent album, Birds That Flew and Ships That Sailed (2022), continued his legacy of introspective, poignant songwriting.
Other fan-favourites include:
-
“Anywhere”
-
“Simple Song”
-
“Sword from the Stone”
-
“Heart’s on Fire”
The India leg of the tour is expected to be an intimate, emotional experience for fans, especially given Rosenberg’s soulful stage presence and acoustic roots. With India’s growing appetite for indie-folk music, Passenger’s debut promises to be a standout live music event in 2024.
