The  band says, “’Replace It All’” is about surrendering yourself to someone else and letting them save you from your past. It’s how it feels to be lost at the end of the world, caught in between love and fear, needing to be rescued”

The band continues about the music video saying “Sometimes the road to get to where you want is long and winding, and even when you’re close enough to see it, you’ve still got a ways to go. The video for ‘Replace It All’ nods to the journey of our band. Now we’re in New York, and we’re putting out our first record. It’s been a long while, but we’re just getting started.”

In support of their new music they have announced their 2025 Winter Headline Tour. The tour kicks off January 26 2025. See all tour dates below.
