Shawn Mendes releases the video for his new hit single “There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back,” directed by Jay Martin. The video features Shawn alongside a love interest played by Ellie Bamber of the critically-acclaimed and award-winning film Nocturnal Animals, and was shot on location in Paris, Amsterdam and the UK.

I really wanted to make a video for this song that represents the spirit of adventure. It felt like there was no better place for that than to shoot throughout different beautiful cities and landscapes in Europe,” revealed Mendes. “The song is about following someone that you love to the world’s end, and making decisions you wouldn’t ever have thought you would, because of someone you’re just that enamored with. We wanted to put a story together that shows this relationship between a guy and a girl and their travels together, in the purest way possible.”

Earlier this week Shawn debuted the first live US performance of “There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon; view here. The track has received critical praise, with NYLON highlighting it as one of the week’s best releases, declaring “Shawn Mendes takes it to the dance floor with this bona fide bop.” TIME proclaimed “Mendes finds a sweet spot here, perhaps taking a page out of Ed Sheeran’s surefire rock-pop playbook as he toes the line between acoustic strummers and party-ready crowd-pleasers,” and V Magazine announced the track as “one of his most upbeat yet, with a snappy drumline, acoustic tropical-esque breakdowns, and a chorus bound to get stuck in your head.”

Shawn is currently in the midst of his first-ever headlining arena world tour tour in support of his #1 sophomore album Illuminate (Island Records). Shawn recently wrapped up the European leg of his llluminate World Tour, with the UK’s Evening Standard awarding Shawn’s O2 show a glowing 4-star review, declaring “the guitar-toting singer-songwriter from Canada had the audience at his beck and call.” Shawn’s North American dates kick off on July 6th in Portland, OR running through August 23rd in Boston, MA, including shows at Los Angeles’ STAPLES Center on July 12th and Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on August 16th (see below for full list of tour dates).
