This news comes as the band share their new single, “One Week Off,” along with a music video directed by DJay Brawner (All Time Low, Fever 333, Travie McCoy). Check it out below.
“One Week Off” marks the band’s first release featuring Livi Dillon on vocals.
“I’m no stranger to vulnerability especially to it bleeding into songwriting, but “One Week Off” truly feels like the most honest and metaphor free song I’ve ever written.” says founding member Tyson Evans, “It feels like a new chapter for us where we embrace full catharsis in and through the songs. This one also welcomes our new member and friend Livi Dillon to the weave which has truly bolstered Jason and I’s pre-existing love for the project and has been such a welcome breath of fresh air.”
The track dives deep into themes of depression and navigating life unmedicated, delivering an unfiltered, heartfelt narrative. The single was co-written with acclaimed songwriter Nick Long (Machine Gun Kelly, Blink-182, Gwen Stefani) and produced by Shan Singh, showcasing a polished yet emotionally charged sound.
