Dear Youth have released a new video for their song “Reprise” featuring Emily Ronna (watch it below). The track is taken from Dear Youth’s EP Over the Bridge, which is available now through iTunes, Bandcamp and Spotify.
The video was produced by OneThought Productions and directed by Sean Colby.
The band commented:
“‘Reprise’ is a song about getting stuck in a determined moment of life. Times in which we aspire and set certain projections on relationships that actually do not exist. This ultimately creates a place where feelings are not reciprocated. This song is about the prisons we build that limit our own potential to move on and become something different, something better.
In this video, the main character (played by Jared from Dear Youth) is trapped inside his own mind. The band members exist in this place as his own internal demons playing tricks on him, keeping Jared in a vicious circle of self-destruction. At one moment of the video, Jared gains conscience of the prison he built for himself and tries do break free. In the very end (the full band part), he is able to leave this vicious circle and destroy his prison. The demons become his virtues and he is capable to move on to another chapter of his life.”
About Dear Youth:
Dear Youth is Canadian pop punk/alternative band from Montréal who formed in December 2015 by Jared Zuckerman (vocals), Brendan Pilon (guitar), Jacob Saray (guitar), Eduardo Fonseca (bass/back vocals) and Devon Cleary (drums). The band released their first EP, Over the Bridge, in October of 2016. The lyrics address the feelings of loss of childhood and youth, the challenges of adulthood, growing up and the changes that accompany these times. The name of the band reminds them to look at their own youth with dear nostalgia while looking ahead and figuring out what they are missing.
