Yungblud Exhibition Featuring Previously Unseen Idols Photos to Open in London

Yungblud is launching a London photography exhibition titled Yungblud: Idols featuring previously unseen images by his photographer and creative director, Tom Pallant.

Organized by Behind The Gallery, the free exhibition opens on Nov. 20 at Union Pacific at 17 Goulston Street. It marks the collection’s exclusive U.K. appearance following its world debut in Sydney earlier this year.

Pallant has worked with Yungblud since 2019, documenting the British rock singer through international tours and major festival appearances like Glastonbury and Coachella. The new display highlights the creative process behind Idols, the latest studio album by the 29-year-old artist. Released last summer, the album reached No. 1 on the Official U.K. Albums Chart, marking his fourth chart-topping record in his home country.

Two special events are scheduled for the opening weekend. An album playback will take place on Nov. 20, followed by a Q&A with Pallant on Nov. 21. Further event details will be announced later.

Visitors can also purchase hand-signed prints produced on fine-art paper by Pallant.

“Being able to bring this show to London and share the Idols world at home is going to be super special,” Pallant stated. “As we close the chapter on Idols, this feels like the right moment to bring together a collection of our favourite work, including a lot of images that both we and others might have missed along the way.

“This exhibition builds on the foundation we made in Sydney. I’ve always been drawn to the moments that happen around a performance as much as the performance itself, the exhaustion, the chaos, the feeling of putting everything you have into something. I’m hoping people are able to view Idols as a whole project and see the journey we all went on.”

Stephen Dallimore, creative director of Behind The Gallery, added: “Tom Pallant’s photography uniquely captures the raw emotional energy of Yungblud, an artist who has taken the world by storm, and it feels only right that U.K. fans now get to be part of that story. It’s very rare that one photographer can tell an artist’s world like Tom can with Yungblud. Over the course of the exhibition, we’ll celebrate with fans these powerful images through photography, music and storytelling.”

Pallant previously published a photography book titled All My Friends Have Deserted Me, documenting Yungblud through his sold-out show at London’s Alexandra Palace in 2021. He has also won three Abbey Road Music Photography Awards.

Yungblud appeared on the cover of Billboard U.K. last December following the release of One More Time, a joint EP with Aerosmith. That project reached No. 9 on the Billboard 200, marking his highest-charting release on the chart.
