Chart-topping powerhouse Alex Warren is the latest artist confirmed to be performing at this year’s BRIT Awards.
Alex is undoubtedly one of last year’s breakout stars following the global success of his hit single ‘Ordinary’. The BRIT certified 2x platinum track went to number one on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the longest-running UK Number 1 by a US artist this decade. It was also the most played record at UK radio in 2025.
Alex released his debut album You’ll Be Alright, Kid in July, which hit Number 1 on the UK Album Chart and went on to rack up six Top 40 singles. It was also the number seven most streamed album globally on Spotify for 2025. It also led to Alex earning his first Grammy nomination for Best New Artist at the 2026 Awards.
Alongside performing on the night, Alex will be looking to take home his first ever BRIT Award as ‘Ordinary’ is nominated for International Song of the Year.
Alex said: “The UK is where ‘Ordinary’ first broke and changed my life last year. I am so grateful for all the love from my fans there, and I can’t wait to bring a big performance to the BRITs’ stage for the very first time.”
Alex joins a star-studded line up of performers, which also includes Olivia Dean, Harry Styles, Wolf Alice, Mark Ronson and ROSALÍA. EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI, the singing voices of K-Pop Demon Hunters group HUNTR/X, will also be recording a special performance pre-filmed in front of invited fans.
