Carly Rae Jepsen has returned with her new single "Me And The Boys In The Band".

Last night (17 August), Carly Rae Jepsen shared images of handwritten lyrics for "Me And The Boys In The Band".

The new single arrives as a surprise this afternoon (18 August), complete with a visual created by Carly Rae Jepsen herself.

The song is a tribute to life on the road, a current distant memory due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Jepsen says of the single, "On the road. That was the life. I miss travel and performing and my band mates who over the years have become my adopted brothers. Through romantic relationships good and bad I have always found myself again in the late-night conversations with my band. Here's to all the shows we have played and have yet to play. The late-night dancers we turn into on the long bus drives and the tourists we become in the early mornings. Here's to nostalgia city and keeping close the ones that know you best. Can't wait for more. Till then a from home "pick me up" song from all of us to you. Me and the boys and the band! Big thanks to Jack Antonoff, Tavish Crowe, Jared Manerika and Nik Pesut for making this jam come together from a distance."

Carly Rae Jepsen's "Me And The Boys In The Band" single is out now on School Boy/Interscope Records.
