Watch Chvrches’ Lauren Mayberry perform upcoming single ‘Something In The Air’ live for the first time

Lauren Mayberry treated fans to a live preview of her upcoming single 'Something In The Air' during a performance in the US this week – check out footage below.

The Chvrches frontwoman has been gradually sharing singles since announcing her solo career last summer , and this week teased that her latest, called 'Something In The Air', will be arriving on October 1.

The artist gave the track a live preview during one of Bleachers ' trio of shows at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, where Mayberry performed as support on Thursday (September 19).

The new single kicks things up a notch from her sombre piano-led 2023 track ' Are You Awake? ' and brings back more Chvrches-style melodrama after the edgy pop-leaning singles ' Shame ' and 'Change Shapes'.

Check out fan-shot footage of the song below.

Last year, Mayberry told NME that her new material was "born out of things that I couldn't or wouldn't write in the band".

"The worst writing sessions were when I went in with someone who didn't really understand what I was talking about and we would just write a sort of shit Chvrches song," she said.

"I was like, 'This is a nice afternoon, but what's the point in this?' There's already a universe where I can make that and I enjoy it. I don't see why I would want to make the Tesco own brand version of that. These are musical and lyrical things that I don't get to do in the band or don't feel comfortable doing in the band."

Upon announcing her solo endeavour last year, the Scottish singer-songwriter shared her hopes that her music would be a "fun, freaky, sad, weird, joyful pop playground" .
