Trapt release new single Passenger and catch them out on tour this summer

June 18, 2015

California Rockers TRAPT have returned with a new release of their song, Passenger. The new single is off their upcoming album, DNA. Vocalist Chris Taylor Brown comments on the song, ““Passenger” is an important song to TRAPT and the self-empowerment message it spreads. Always looking to someone else to “get you there” will never get you anywhere, as only the individual knows what is best for them. We have all been a “Passenger” at some point or another, because it’s easy to feel lost. Just know that everyone else feels this way too, even when they say they know where they are going. What separates each and every one of us, is whether or not we have the strength to actually take the wheel and put our lives into our own hands, even when we are lost. Especially when we are lost! It’s the only way to find out who we really are.” Check out the new song here: In addition, TRAPT will be heading out on tour this summer with supporters Sons Of Texas. [Read More]
