The song arrives alongside the announcement of the band’s forthcoming fifth studio album, Where The Light Goes, arriving May 26 via Atlantic Records. Produced by Gregg Wattenberg with Paul Doucette and Kyle Cook, the album finds the band surging with energy for another great batch of real, relevant, and relatable songs.
