The Sober singer and Guinness World Record holder shared some of his rock star requests with Gordon Smart.

Tom Grennan has shared some of the items he requests on his tour rider, and they're more diva than you might think.

Watch our video above.

Asked by Radio X's Gordon Smart how far along he is on the "Mariah Carey scale" when it comes to his pre-gig requests, he revealed he demands: "Two bottles of brandy, definitely two, a white pair of socks and a black pair of socks - you always need a fresh pair of socks 'cause it makes you feel fresh - and sparkling water not stilled, and I love pistachio nuts..."

Well, after scoring a Top 5 debut album in Lighting Matches and now being a Guinness World Record holder we reckon he should start asking for more.

I can’t believe today. Thank you all so much 💚 come on England #lightingmatches 🔥 . . . . . #tomgrennan #livegig #worldrecord #england #threelions #engcro #sun #summer #newmusic #halfway #worldrecord #comeon #trippier #itscominghome
