Now, she’s shared the latest song from the LP, which she’s described as “one of the happiest songs on the album,” though it delves into a melancholic nostalgia “clinging onto ideas that should make me happy but actually make me feel sad, because I wish they were just moments I lived in forever,” she says.

Built around a euphoric acoustic guitar, the song sees Beabadoobee dwell on the small details, as she sings: “ The smell of rain on the pavement/It’s 3 am and I thought of you/You’re the best, you’re my favourite/I see you in all shades of blue .” Listen below. ‘Memories’ was already debuted live during her show at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado earlier this month .

Also during that concert, Bea played the album’s title track ‘Pylon’ for the first time, as well as previously released singles ‘ Sun Has Set ‘ and ‘ Switchblade ‘.

The new album is set to feature Hayley Williams on ‘Nothing To Prove’ and Turnstile frontman Brendan Yates on ‘Powerlines’, as well as contributions from Pinegrove ‘s Evan Stephens Hall, Deftones’ Chino Moreno and Title Fight’s Shane Morgan.

The 1975 ‘s Matty Healy and George Daniel also produced the track ‘Write Me A Letter’.

The huge ‘Powerlines’ tour will kick off in Uncasville, Connecticut on October 1, before reaching the UK in November for shows in Glasgow, Cardiff, Manchester and London.

In a four-star review, NME wrote : “A collection of songs that showcase the tangled feelings of this time, the young artist’s third record is a poignant, powerful thing.” Earlier this year, she also teamed up with The Marías on the one-off single ‘All I Did Was Dream Of You’ , which arrived with a video inspired by Yorgos Lanthimos’ Bugonia , and covered Elliott Smith’s ‘Say Yes’ for the War Child compilation ‘Help(2)’ .
