R&B singer, songwriter and producer ASTN returns with the evocative new single “How Soon?” Stripped back and effortlessly relatable, the track finds the 24-year-old coming to grips with the aftermath of a relationship and deciding when it’s time to move on. “How Soon?” follows his recent scorcher “Be So Cruel” and the 2022 EP You’re Almost There.
“Don’t know where the hell I’m going, but it’s better than laying here lonely,” ASTN sings over a gentle guitar and finger-snapping, adding at the chorus: “I didn’t mean to move on, but how soon is too soon to get with someone?” He deftly captures the conflicted feelings that come with an unexpected crush arising at the tail-end of a breakup, while also conjuring a soulful groove that demands repeat listens.
