Sam Fender has shared a teaser of a euphoric new song with fans. Check it out below.The Geordie singer-songwriter took to his Instagram Stories this afternoon (October 2) to share two new snippets of new music with fans.

Only available to view on his page for 24 hours, the clips show Fender filming the speakers inside his studio, and revealing two sections of what seems to be the same new track.If the new material turns out to be part of a full album, it’ll be some of the first new music from the musician since he released his critically acclaimed sophomore album ‘Seventeen Going Under’ in 2021.Both the clips on his Instagram Stories seem to have an upbeat, summer feel to them, yet the lyrics contain a touch of melancholy. “Do you have a moment?/ I was holding on hope,” he can be heard singing in the first one, while the second contains lyrics like: “I’ve been broken on this one last time/ We’re dancing to the rhythm of it / Sometimes you tell me you don’t want to win it.”As for the sound of the new track, there is an unmissable influence to Bruce Springsteen that comes through – with the singer being open about his admiration for The Boss in the past – as well as a subtle nod to The 1975.

The second clip also appears to come from the end part of the song and shows an emotive string section.Shortly after sharing the teasers for the new song, Fender took to his Stories once more, this time sharing self-filmed footage of him in the studio playing the double bass.
