The Shawn Mendes EP

Thirteen minutes of earnest acoustic pop and soaring falsetto. A stripped-back debut defined by percussive guitar and the raw vulnerability of early stardom.

It's the sound of a kid with a guitar and a huge heart becoming a superstar in real-time.

An earnest and sun-drenched collection of acoustic pop that feels like a first confession of love.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden lift into a breathy falsetto during the chorus of Life of the Party.
