PAOLO Nutini has released two brand new songs with an album to follow - and Twitter has reacted.

The Paisley singer-songwriter teased that he would be dropping new music at 7.30pm tonight and he didn't disappoint. 

Singles Through the Echoes and Lose It have been released, and Paolo has promised that his album Last Night in the Bittersweet will debut on July 1.

 

Nutini fans on social media reacted with excitement upon hearing the new tracks, the artist's first hint of new music in years.

One fan tweeted: "This guy just made my summer. I've been waiting eight long years for@PaoloNutini's next album, and finally my patience is about to be rewarded!"

Another said: "Paolo Nutini bringing out new music has made my whole year."

One Twitter user wrote that they were "obsessed" with the new tracks, while another said: "And he’s back like he’s never been away! Roll on TRNSMT!"

Paolo is headlining the Glasgow festival this July, shortly after the release of the new album. 

The songs seem to have had an emotional effect on some listeners, with one saying: "Yes I did tear up listening to this NEW (I can’t believe it took a million years) Paolo Nutini song, Through The Echos is so beautiful."

Another simply wrote: "I'm not crying, you're crying."
