{"product_id":"shawn-mendes-handwritten","title":"Shawn Mendes - Handwritten","description":"\u003cp\u003eShawn Mendes' Handwritten is where the story starts: a debut from a teenager with a guitar, a big voice and a knack for hooks that would soon carry him around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSigned to Island Records at just 15, the Canadian singer had already built a large following online before Handwritten arrived in 2015. It debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, a remarkable result for a first album from an artist still in his teens, and it launched one of the defining pop careers of the decade that followed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe album was recorded at Noble Street Studios in Toronto, with producers including Teddy Geiger and Martin Terefe keeping the arrangements bright and guitar-led. Stitches became the breakout, its pounding, wounded chorus climbing into the top five in the US and all the way to number one in the UK. Life of the Party shows off his gentler side, while Something Big and A Little Too Much capture the wide-eyed energy of a young songwriter discovering what he can do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore than a decade on, it remains a snapshot of earnest, heart-first pop songwriting. For anyone who has followed Mendes from the very beginning, this is the essential first chapter, and it still sounds fresh on vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57307801354545,"sku":"602547641847","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Shawn_Mendes-Handwritten.jpg?v=1793814158","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/shawn-mendes-handwritten","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
