Newsletter: Malcolm Todd shares new single & video “I Saw Your Face”

[THIS IS A PRESS RELEASE]


After a breakout year that saw his first appearance on the Billboard Hot 100 and a sold-out international headline tour spanning three continents, Malcolm kicked off 2026 with “Breathe,” his highest debut ever reaching the top 50 on Spotify day one. Now Malcolm Todd is back to tease more of what’s to come with the drop of a new single “I Saw Your Face.” A meditation on ending a relationship you know isn't right and grieving it anyway, the song captures something true and hard to say–just because leaving was your choice doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt. The single comes alongside a music video co-directed by Malcolm Todd and Aidan Cullen. The video comments on masculinity unraveling. Man vs. cutting an onion, Malcolm vs. his sensitivity… the joke lands but the feeling is real to all the men out there. There is even a standoff in the video between Malcolm and a giant onion.
