Rise Video

New Video!

“Rise” came about in 2015, after ex bandmate Alex Aguilar suggested I write a happy song. I think until then our setlist ranged between heart-breaking and melancholic. 😂

This video was shot Saturday afternoon, and finished by bedtime Sunday night, by Serhat Arslan, who is quite possibly the fastest video editor. No professional actors were harmed (or filmed) in the making of this video. We had so much fun. Hope you all like it!

Rise

Big changes around the corner
Trying them on for size
New skin still a bit too tight
But the place and time feel right

I’m feeling a little light-headed tonight
Happy to find I’m not dancing alone

Feel our spirits
Rising higher
Flying colors
Test of fire

I’m feeling a little light-headed tonight
Look around we’re not dancing alone

Feel our spirits
Rising higher
Throw the ballast
In the fire

Your eyes your grin
I drink you in
Where have you been?
Is this happening?

Your hair your skin
I breathe you in
Where have you been?
Where have you been?

Big changes around the corner
Look around we’re not dancing alone
