Louis William Tomlinson (; born 24 December 1991) is an English singer, songwriter, and fashion designer. Born and raised in Doncaster, England, Tomlinson auditioned for British singing competition The X Factor as a solo artist in 2010, where he and four rejected solo contestants would be placed into a group which would become British-Irish band One Direction, one of the best-selling boy bands of all time.
Following the group's hiatus in 2016, Tomlinson released "Just Hold On" with Steve Aoki as his debut solo single in December 2016. It peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart and was certified platinum in the UK. In 2017, he released "Back to You" with American singer Bebe Rexha and "Miss You". He appeared on Debrett's 2017 list of the most influential people in the UK. In 2018, he appeared on the fifteenth series of The X Factor as a judge and a mentor of the "Boys" category.
Tomlinson's debut solo studio album, Walls, was released in January 2020, where it debuted at No. 4 in the UK and No. 9 in the US Billboard 200. Tomlinson's second studio album, Faith in the Future, was released in November 2022, where it debuted at No. 1 in the UK and No. 5 in the US Billboard 200. Tomlinson would commence his Faith in the Future World Tour in May 2023, earning him critical acclaim and leading to him being nominated by Rolling Stone for best Live Act at their inaugural Rolling Stone UK Awards. His documentary film, All of Those Voices (2022), earned positive reviews from critics.
Praised for his lyricism, Tomlinson's musical style has been described as indie pop, Britpop, and indie rock, among others. Tomlinson has been involved in extensive philanthropy since 2010, donating millions of pounds towards charities and participating in causes such as Soccer Aid. Tomlinson launched streetwear brand "28" in August 2023, incorporating his native White Rose of York into branding. He is the curator of the Away From Home Festival, an indie music festival.
