Canadian indie-pop singer-songwriter Jordan Klassen has unveiled a stream of his new single "Firing Squad".
There's plenty of glimmering guitar chords, sickly-sweet synth blips and lip-smacking strings. It's a tad twee, but it warms the cockles of your heart like only rough-edged guitar-pop can.
He's already got one album out in the States, but it appears the avid poet is training his sights on ol' Blighty. Klassen will also perform at London's Waiting Room 16 December.
Enjoy the chirpy ditty below.
"Firing Squad" is released 8 December on Nevado.
