Nashville-based rockers Kings Of Leon have teased us with a trailer of new music to come later this week. The band told crowds at their first live show of the year in Mexico that new music would be coming this week. The new single will be titled ‘Mustang’, and the band shared a snippet of it on their social media feeds earlier this week.

The teaser offered above is in the form of an instrumental with some toned-down bass riff and a fragment of vocals but with no discernible lyrics, leaving us all in wonder. Frontman Caleb Followill announced the new track towards the end of the set, and this will mark their first new music since their 2021 LP When You See Yourself. The band who are currently on tour in Mexico, Columbia, and Brazil this March and tickets are available at Songkick.

Kings Of Leon is a band that was formed in Nashville, Tennessee, in 1999. The band comprises brothers Caleb, Nathan and Jared Followill and their cousin Matthew Followill. Their early music was a blend of Southern/Garage rock with blues influences but has since evolved to include a variety of genres, creating a more alternative rock-based sound. They achieved success with nine Top Forty Singles and won two Brit Awards in 2008, and all three of the band’s albums, at the time, reached the top five of the UK Album Charts. And their third album, Because of the Times, reached number one. The release of Only by the Night in September of 2008 garnered them chart success in the United States, and the singles Sex on Fire, Use Somebody, and Notion all peaked at number one on the Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart.
The new track Mustang will be released this Thursday. So if you are looking to use somebody to cheer you up, then tune in on Thursday to check out the new music. At this point, one can only speculate, but there is always they hope that a new album will follow along with, hopefully, a UK or European tour.
