I hope you like my band's video. We shot most of the footage in Austin, TX during the 2013 South by South West (SxSW) music festival over the course of 4 days. The actual track was recorded in studios in both Philadelphia and New Jersey (which is where the band is from). The "rock star" looking guy in the dreads is "John Moyer." He was our producer on the track and he also plays bass for DISTURBED and most recently ADRENALINE MOB (with Mike Portnoy, Russell Allen and Mike Orlando).
