Hours after it was announced James Blake will perform at this year's Eaux Claires Music & Arts Festival, the singer has shared an entrancing new track "Modern Soul."

It serves as the first preview of his long-awaited new album, Radio Silence, which is expected later this year, perhaps sooner than later if this track is any indication.

The song, which Blake premiered Thursday afternoon on BBC Radio 1, can be heard below.
