Shawn Mendes has premiered the video for Treat You Better, the debut single from his highly anticipated sophomore album ‘Illuminate’, available September 23^rd on Island Records. Directed by Ryan Pallotta and filmed at a remote motel just outside of New York City, the Treat You Better video features Shawn as both a narrator and protagonist, telling the story of a girl stuck in a relationship gone bad while he desperately tries to find a way to get through to her and help. 

MTV declares “it sees Mendes doing things with his voice that we’ve never really heard from him before, like breaking into a grungy groan right before hitting those oh-so-smooth high notes.”

Shawn recently performed Treat You Better and bluesy new track Ruin along with 4x Platinum single Stitches on Today Show's Summer Concert Series. This was the biggest concert of the series so far, with Shawn playing to a crowd of over 10,000 fans spanning 3 city blocks.
