New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Up and coming Australian post-alternative rock outfit, Between
Kings today release their first official music video for "The Escape" online at https://youtu.be/o_Rw7bBPE4o. "The Escape" is an arena-rock ballad with massive melodies, powerful hooks and heartfelt lyrics that speaks directly to their generation, The Escape is about the emotional and for some, physical trappings of youth and shows great promise for this young band.
"This song is a window into the minds of four young guys from Australia," said Between
Kings singer Nic Machuca, "It's our way of expressing our desire to dismantle the insecurities in life and create our own reality."
Filmed in their hometown Brisbane, The Escape film clip is a narrative delving into self-esteem and domestic violence that paired with driving rhythms, soaring melodies and lyrics like, "I won't leave you in the dark," and "I'll be your home" is uplifting, inspiring and emotionally triumphant.
