Hailing from just north of Manchester in Lancashire, Tom Wills grew up with live music echoing through his world. From an early age, he was infatuated by the energy of packed dancefloors and the electricity of live performance and by fourteen, he’d already landed his first real gig, setting off on a journey that would take him from local bars to festival stages all in pursuit of that spark that only happens when performer and audience connect.
Over the years, Tom has earned a reputation as one of the UK’s most exciting new voices in the dance pop sphere. His sound stands at the crossroads where soul meets disco and pop meets the club; smooth and emotive one moment, euphoric and anthemic the next. His vocals carry warmth and emotion in equal measure, commanding a room and filling it with infectious energy carried by his distinct Northern charm.
Onstage, he’s a force of charisma and individuality, a performer who knows that style and substance aren’t opposites but partners in expression. Inspired by the likes of Diana Ross, Cher and Freddie Mercury while channeling the swagger of Mick Jagger with the edge of David Bowie, Tom blends old-school glamour with modern self-assurance. Every outfit, every movement feels like part of the story, uncompromising and steadfast in his mission to create spaces where people can feel free, seen and connected.
His performances are celebrations of individuality, moments for everyone to drop their guard and move together. As an openly queer artist and mental health advocate, he uses his platform to encourage confidence, visibility and open conversation. Earlier this year, he spoke candidly about living with anxiety, depression and ADHD, sharing how that journey towards self-acceptance became a source of strength and creativity.
Now, he steps onto the global stage with his latest release titled “Mid-Night Moves,” a collaboration with Sholz-Y that captures a sense of freedom, connection and the sheer joy of the dance floor. Released under The Dance Division, the track is an instantly catchy anthem made for that moment when the lights dim, the bass kicks and strangers move as one. Blurring the lines between techno, house and pop, it’s a shimmering dance pop track where hypnotic synths and deep grooves meet Tom’s soaring voice.
“Mid-Night Moves is about that rush of energy and attraction. When the beat hits, the lights flash and two people connect. It’s that shared freedom and chemistry music creates, moving as one,” Tom shares. The single marks Tom’s debut under The Dance Division and what a debut it is. Already named Outreach Radio’s Hot Track of the Week, “Mid-Night Moves” has broken into the German Dance-Charts Top 100, climbing to #35, and #11 on the Commercial House Chart, sitting alongside artists like David Guetta, MK and Armin van Buuren.
In collaboration with Sholz-Y, whose melodic house-meets-techno sound brings an international context, Tom has delivered a song that feels at once nostalgic, forward-looking and utterly euphoric. Packed full of invigorating rhythms, bright synth textures and capped by his sensational vocal performance carrying memorable melodic hooks, “Mid-Night Moves” serves up a dazzling dance pop experience that’s sure to light up the airwaves and dancefloors around the world. There’s a reason Manchester made dance culture legendary and that spirit of unity, rebellion and joy lives on through Tom Wills as an artist turning influences from the past into the heartbeat of today.
