On Friday (2.18), Shawn Mendes teased fans with a snippet from a new song likely to appear on his yet-untitled forthcoming album.
The 23-year old superstar singer/songwriter took to Instagram instructing his followers to “swipe twice” through two selfie photos before getting to a video of Mendes listening and moving to the song in what appears to be a studio. While the lyrics are difficult to make out, the instrumentation is dance-ready with guitar work and heavy synth arrangements.
Not the first time the three-time Grammy nominee has teased his fans with new music, the hitmaker’s been sharing clips of himself in the studio with collaborators with his former girlfriend Camila Cabello giving her stamp of approval when he posted a song teaser last month.
Originally scheduled to go on tour starting March 14 in support of his Billboard 200 chart-topping album, Wonder, the tour was later postponed according to his Twitter statement “I’m so sorry I won’t be able to see you guys sooner.” “We unfortunately were forced to move the UK/EU tour dates to 2023 due to the pandemic.” Instead the star is slated to appear at Samsung + Billboard’s Present The Stage concert series at SXSW on Saturday, March 19, at the Moody Amphitheater at Waterloo Park in Austin, Texas.
