(Sony) Columbia Records will release Paul Potts' sophomore album, Passione, on April 21. Paul's debut album, One Chance, stormed to the top of the charts in 13 countries and notched up an astounding 27 platinum and four gold awards.

Hot on the heels of that triumph and with his undeniable talent, unmistakable voice and zeal for music comes Passione. Overflowing with his passionate, inimitable style combined with impeccable technique; Paul is set to touch more hearts with his enchanting, classical voice. The stunning new album has been almost a year in the making with Paul working with an array of world class producers, composers and European Orchestras; Paul returns with a new found confidence and vigor that leaves no doubt as to his incredible talent.

Passione includes a mixture of original recordings along with show stoppers including the haunting "La Prima Volta (The First Time I Saw Your Face)" and "Memory," the ageless classic written and composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Paul's rise to fame from a humble, self-deprecating phone salesman has touched the hearts of millions. He became a YouTube Superstar and to date has had over 74 million hits watching his voyage from the first audition to winning Britain's Got Talent. The figures speak for themselves; One Chance sold over three and a half million albums, rocketed to the number one spot in 13 countries and stormed to the top 10 in a further eight. In the UK, his album outsold the entire top 10 collectively. The electrifying world tour with over 100 sold out shows and performances in national stadiums to crowds of over 50,000 people cemented Paul's success. In addition, Paul recently won a prestigious Echo award in Germany for 'Best Male International Artist'.
