Peter Xan is back with a powerful new single inspired by loss, “Empty Space”

Pierre Xan is back with a new single, ‘Free space’.

Released today (July 16) via the FADER label, the track marks Xan’s first new music since his 2023 EP ‘GOD SAVE THE KING’, and features guitarist Olly Burdon of The Prodigy.

Xan explains: “Empty Space is about the vices I used to fill the voids caused by the loss of my friend Cane, who was a producer, roommate, and best friend and who passed away last year. The relationships I formed immediately after the death were often used to fill the voids where I couldn’t rationalize everything that was happening. Empty Space is about running into the void with a girl. And how she made me feel during the numbness of that experience.”

The single is accompanied by a music video directed by Thomas Rawle, known for his work with Fred Again – check it out below.

Xan’s upcoming live dates include supporting The Libertines and an appearance at Nine8 Fest in London in October.

OCTOBER
7 The Great Hall, Cardiff University, Cardiff, United Kingdom *
