Shawn Mendes is set to release a Live Album version with tracks from his recent performances on “Mtv Unplugged,” People’s Choice reported. He was selected as the featured singer of the music network on September 8.

“Releasing my #MTVUnplugged as a live album on November 3rd!” Mendes posted a tweet and attached a photo taken from the show. He also attached a link on where fans can pre-order the album. It is available for download on Google Play, Apple Music, iTunes and Spotify.

His “MTV Unplugged” performance happened at The Theatre at Ace Hotel in Los Angeles, California.

With the release of his live album versions, fans can be able to get a copy of all of the songs performed during the intimate concert. While the songs from this live version came from his previous tracks, it provides fans with a version that leans toward acoustic more than the original studio version of his hits.

The album will include a total of 11 songs from his live performance. These songs include “Mercy,” “Stitches,” “Bad Reputation,” and “There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back,” MTV News published in an earlier report.
