Former Eurovision finalist Isaiah Firebrace has dropped a new video clip to his latest single Streets of Gold, and wants fans to know it's just a taste of things to come.
The 17-year-old took home the X-Factor crown in 2016 before taking Australia to ninth place at this year's Eurovision song contest. But the popstar has now confirmed he's taking a step back from TV appearances to knuckle down on his second studio album.

Firebrace secures place in Eurovision grand final
Australian singer Isaiah Firebrace has won a spot in the final of the 62nd annual Eurovision Song Contest.
Despite only coming out just over a week ago, Streets of Gold has raked up more than 1 million streams on Spotify and Apple Music.
Firebrace told Fairfax Media the response has encouraged him to keep working on his own original tracks, whether it be mellow pop songs or something more upbeat.
"It's really encouraging," he said. "It's more personal [than my previous work]. But when I'm writing music, I can write songs about personal experiences or sometimes just a song for fun. So some of the music coming out soon will definitely be more fun and different to Streets of Gold."
Watch Isaiah's flim clip for Streets of Gold exclusively here:
Firebrace, who has taken a break from his studies to focus on songwriting full-time, said he's incredibly grateful that Australians have stuck by him post X-Factor and Eurovision.
"Things have been going really well," he said. "In the last few months, I've been gathering a few songs for a possible album release. I don't know when, but hopefully sometime soon."
Either way, the teenager said the ultimate goal is to provide his fans - who live as far away as Sweden - more original songs. His first studio album, Isaiah, featured covers of popular singles by the likes of Pharrell Williams, Adele and Beyonce.
"It's weird because I never saw myself as a songwriter," Firebrand said. "But when I started, only this year, I got really confident with it. Sometimes I come up with the lyrics first, sometimes the melody first. There's so many ways a song can come to life."
