New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Chelmsford rockers HEY VANITY are hitting the road this week on a support slot with legendary US pop punks Lit and Army of Freshmen - to celebrate, they're pleased to reveal the video for 'The Life, The Party, The Scene' the latest track to be taken from their mini-album 'Blindfolds' released earlier this year on Small Town Records.
Some of the nicest guys in rock, the band - like many in their position - have been juggling day jobs with touring and recording in various bands for years. This track is an anthem for anyone who's ever felt jaded, had doubts, or like the reality of their situation doesn't quite match up to the dream - "sometimes I find myself believing I was never meant for this" laments singer Marc Halls on the cuttingly honest rack, as he continues "it's only those who live and breathe the life, the party and the scene who really ever find that age old dream - that's just not something that i'll ever be. I was never meant for this."
"The Life, The Party, The Scene is pretty much about not being very rock n roll at all" he laughs as he explains the inspiration behind the track "It's about this made up lifestyle of partying and being cool that I'm just not very good at pretending to lead - I'm one of the most ordinary people I know!"
2014 has been a busy year for the band so far, as lengthy support slots with Straight Lines, The Swellers and more recently good friends in Decade have seen them taking the explosive alt-pop-rock of 'Blindfolds' to a wider audience.
