“I wrote “Nobody Has To Know” in London when I was seeing someone, and we kept it cool with no emotional strings attached. I often find myself getting into those kinda situations and it gets really messy, but this one felt really fun and was exactly what the two of us wanted at the time. The song follows the innocence of that relationship, but I also wanted it to be a banging tune that was really fun to listen to and play live. It feels so good to finally have it out and moving in this direction, especially now that live shows are coming back and I have teased it to a point where everyone already knows the words.” Thomas Headon
Thomas Headon was born in London and raised in Melbourne, but dreamt of moving back to the city to pursue music. Thomas’ mum told him he had a year to get a “proper job” otherwise he would have to return home. Arriving in London just before the pandemic hit, Thomas started to build a community online with his off-kilter live sessions, tongue-in-cheek charm and remarkable songwriting ability. Learning to write and produce on his own in his late teens, Thomas has already released self-written and self-produced debut EP, ‘The Greatest Hits,’ which has gained over 27 million streams, and dropped The Goodbye EP last year, all before his 20th birthday. Today, Thomas drops brand new single ‘Nobody Has To Know’ on Warner Records, which premiered on Clara Amfo’s BBC Radio 1 show last night, who said “there is so much love for Thomas Headon”. But not before hundreds of fans got a preview at Reading & Leeds festival, where Thomas played his first UK festival to a packed out Dance Stage, and met Norwegian popstar Sigrid, who he will be joining on tour in Spring 2022. The official video for ‘Nobody Has To Know’, directed by Thomas and British photographer Jordan Curtis Hughes, is reminiscent of noughties garage rock bands in teen romcoms, and sets the scene for a new star ready to break away from his parents garage, and get a “proper job”.

Building an incredibly loyal fanbase over lockdown and amassing 95K followers on Instagram, Thomas’ blend of playful alternative pop that speaks to the Gen-Z experience, has been compared to the likes of the 1975’s Matty Healy, and critically praised by Triple J, naming him a “seriously impressive force in pop music”. Already performing a charmingly energetic live session on Jack Saunders’ BBC Radio 1 show, Thomas has just sold out two nights at London’s Heaven on a 17-date tour in November, following the “Living Room Shows” tour, where he played an intimate acoustic series to thousands of fans across the UK. One of the first artists to curate Spotify’s Our Generation playlist, the 20-year-old has also gained over 40M global streams, and his last single ‘Bored’, featuring American singer-songwriter, Lizzy McAlpine, was praised by Thomas’s biggest fan – his mum, as “a pretty cute song”.
