Arriving via LAB Records, the guitar-led indie-pop track centres around emotive lyrics and marks the Irish artist's fourth release to date, following In My Head, Graduating and Homesick. She said:
"I wrote Punchline in my bedroom last year about a friendship ending before it needed to and the heartbreak that comes with it. It’s about trying to 'win' the friendship break-up by pretending it doesn’t hurt you that much, but still having that sick feeling you get in your stomach because you miss the other person."
The song follows massive shows supporting P!nk, Florence And The Machine, and Dermott Kennedy, with the singer-songwriter's packed summer schedule set to continue with slots at Latitude Festival, All Points East and Kendal Calling.
Mescal also has dates lined up with The Last Dinner Party, before headline UK and Ireland shows in October and December. Tickets are on sale.
