Tinley Park, IL’s Real Friends are set to release their sophomore album,The Home Inside My Head, on May 27th via Fearless Records. Last week, the band shared the new video for the album track, Scared To Be Alone. Check it out here and pre-order The Home Inside My Head at RealFriendsBand.com.
Filmed in Louisville, KY, director Max Moore brought bassist Kyle Fasel’s emotionally personal lyrics to life in the Scared To Be Alone video. “The lyrical content of the song is about my mom, so it hits pretty close to home for me,” explains Kyle. “My mom and I have a great relationship. But over the past few years she has put herself in some situations that she doesn’t deserve. It’s hard to watch someone you love make bad decisions. All you want to do is help but you can’t seem to get through to them. I think that’s something we will all deal with in life. It’s real hard but I’m glad to make a positive out of the situation by writing about it.”
The band have a busy tour season ahead with dates in the UK on the Slam Dunk Festival, followed by a Main Stage slot on the Vans Warped Tour 2016, where both MTV and Buzzfeed noted Real Friends as an artist to watch on the tour this summer. Full tour routing listed below.
