Global Singer-Songwriter SHAUN Releases New Single 'Diary' Leading to Upcoming EP

SHAUN Unveils New Single 'Diary'

On February 10, 2026, global singer-songwriter SHAUN will release his brand-new single titled 'Diary' on various music streaming platforms. This track serves as the third advance single leading up to his highly anticipated EP scheduled for release in April, following previous hits 'Pixels' and 'Night Walk'.

'Diary' is a reflective piece that delicately explores the passage of time and emotions, reminiscent of flipping through the pages of a diary. Rather than merely soaking in the feelings, the song offers a gentle perspective on the past from the present, showcasing SHAUN's distinctive storytelling style.

This new single is characterized by a band sound focusing on electric guitar, lending a minimalist structure that highlights both the melody and the flow of sound alongside unembellished lyrics. A particularly poignant phrase within the song describes “worn paper and clumsy writing,” symbolically capturing the traces of time while lovingly connecting memories to the present.

In 'Diary', SHAUN takes charge of all aspects of songwriting, composing, and production, ensuring a cohesive and consistent style throughout his music. The upcoming music video, expected to be released soon, visually interprets the themes of 'Diary', intertwining memories from the “Time Machine Club” formed during his childhood with the current timeline, symbolically portraying relationships that continue to evolve despite the inability to relive the past.

Additionally, the film-like texture and nostalgic analog production of the video breathe life into the song's emotional depth, enriching the viewer's experience. This creative project symbolizes SHAUN's journey so far and the direction he plans to take, paving the way for a new chapter in his musical journey, starting with 'Diary' and leading into his EP release in April.
