“We’ve done several videos with Vince [Lundi] in the past. I think most of all, besides the fact that he is extremely talented, we just get along with him. He’s just a breeze to work with.” ForeverandNever drummer Austin Wright talks about their relationship with the director of at least three of the band’s music videos, including their latest below. “We give him a vision, he builds off of it with his ideas, and we end up with something everywhere loves in the end. Extremely please with how this one turned out.”
ForeverandNever are gearing up to release their 3-song EP Promises on June 2nd. When it came to picking the three songs on the EP, Wright replied: “We compile the songs we have and figure out what we think stands out the most or what is more cohesive as an EP.” Inquiring about the possibility of a new album afterward, Wright continued: “We are in talks right now about possibly setting another record in motion. No dates have been set and all the other variables that come with that have to be squared away but we have been writing non stop. Mostly we want to have a good number of songs so we can choose what makes the cut for whatever type of album we choose to make.”
When asked about the meaning behind the song, the band’s guitarist Stephen Malone commented:
“Everyone knows the anecdote about growing up with dreams and desires, and how as we grow, our station in life, friends, loved ones etc can steer us away from what we know we were made for. ‘Promises’ is a narrative about how one person can steer you away from that path and turn you into something that you never wanted to be. The video mirrors that inner turmoil, and how we torture and kill our true selves trying to find happiness by becoming a facade, in denial who we really are.”

About ForeverandNever:
After 3 EPs, one full-length, thousands of miles, and a couple hundred shows, ForeverandNever have found themselves ready to take over the world (or at least your iTunes playlist). Dealing with the arduous task of being a rock band in Mississippi, the group garnered a solid local and regional following, and decided that maybe it was time to start pursuing music as a career, so they packed up their lives and moved to Nashville.
ForeverandNever have played with notable bands including A Day to Remember, New Found Glory, Mayday Parade, Underoath, and many more. This past year, the band were fortunate enough to record with Saves The Day guitarist and producer, Arun Bali, who has begun to help the band streamline and polish their sound.
