August 26, 2024

  State Champs have just released a new music video for their track Too Late to Say. The song is showcasing a fresh new sound that demonstrates their vulnerable side.

She was showing me photos of her and I from high school, and I couldn’t remember anything at all about them. To my eyes, I looked like a completely different, happier person. It drove a sense of worry about how much of my life had been lost to a sadness I’ve never been able to define. “The footage was captured by Sarai Kelley over the course of the two and a half weeks we spent around Europe in March/April of this year.” For more information on the band, [Read More]
