Kings Of Leon have released their new single ‘We’re Onto Something’, featuring vocals from Zach Bryan – listen below.
The song was debuted live on stage in San Francisco last week (August 15) and it has now arrived in its studio form. The track has been released via Love Tap Records, the band’s own imprint distributed by Virgin Records.
It follows on from the two artists’ recent collaboration ‘Bowery’, which was first released earlier this month and also featured during the Golden Gate Park show last week.
‘We’re Onto Something’ sees Kings Of Leon in relaxed, bluesy form, with Caleb Followill and Bryan trading vocals over a bed of harmonica, atmospheric guitars and an ambling rhythm section.

Speaking about the song in an Instagram video, Followill has said: “I feel like this is just kind of like vibey, good times, not taking it too seriously. The way that the song is written, but also the way that we’re going about it.”
“We’re trying to be less meticulous about every little decision that we make,” he added. “And just kind of trying to be loose with things, because that’s how it feels the best for us in our world when we’re making music.”
Kings Of Leon have been away from the stage for a significant portion of this year, having been forced to cancel a run of UK and European shows this summer after Followill underwent emergency surgery in May when he shattered his heel while playing with his kids. They returned to the stage last month.
They are back in the UK to headline Come Together Festival in Newcastle on Friday (August 22) and Victorious Festival in Portsmouth on Sunday (August 24). Later, they’ll play Norway’s Unity Arena and the Paris Adidas Arena in France, as well as Ireland’s Electric Picnic Festival.
The shows are in celebration of Kings Of Leon’s ninth studio album, ‘Can We Please Have Fun’, which was released in May last year. That record was given four-star review from NME and described as “easily KOL’s most promising, liberated record for over a decade”.
Bryan, meanwhile, headlined BST Hyde Park in June, where he was supported by Dermot Kennedy, Mt. Joy, Gabrielle Aplin, Willow Avalon, Ole 60, Noeline Hofmann, recent NME cover star Waylon Wyatt, Aaron Rowe and Nadia Kadek.
