Tom Odell returns with new single 'If You Wanna Love Somebody'

After delivering the heavily-praised sophomore album 'Wrong Crowd' back in 2016, Tom Odell has returned with what is likely the first preview of his next full-length release.

The new single 'If You Wanna Love Somebody' was co-produced alongside Ben Baptie and Martin Terefe while recorded between Strongroom Studios in East London and Kensaltown Studios, and sees the frontman lose a lot of the gloominess he presented on his last LP release.

Check out the new video for 'If You Wanna Love Somebody', directed by Sophie Littman, in the player below.
