Don Broco share new single “One True Prince”

August 8, 2021

Don Broco have released their new single ‘One True Prince’, taken from the forthcoming new album “Amazing Things”, which will be released on the 17th September via Sharptone Records. The track sees Don Broco shine a light on their slower and more immersive side, presenting the band in a completely new way. Colossal guitars, thunderous drums, and enchanting vocals dance together in a captivating ebb and flow, channeling their inner Deftones to paint a detailed and evocative picture with a stunning sonic palette. The accompanying video compliments the expansive vibe, set in the very center of a vast and desolate landscape. As the band musically explores their sound the video’s protagonist explores their beautiful surroundings, traversing the unknown terrain in search of something completely out of this world. Lead singer Rob Damiani comments, “’One True Prince’ is about finding comfort in the fact that whatever you’re going through and however bad it may feel, nothing lasts forever. “In these moments I try to remind myself how insignificant I am.
