San Diego, CA pop-punk band Summer Years have released “This Light”, the first single off their upcoming EP ‘You Can’t Live There Forever’.
Vocalist/guitarist Nick Lanari says, “This Light is about the idea that it’s not too late to pursue what you have always dreamed of, and battling the idea of ‘I’ll start working toward it tomorrow’ but tomorrow never seems to come. Live your best life now. Today. Find your way to thrive. Failure is not eternal, pain is not eternal, your past doesn’t define you, you can’t live there forever.”
The video was shot mostly in the San Diego coastal towns of Carlsbad and Encinitas. Lanari recalls, “We filmed some drone shots at the very end of the day, and none other than Tom Delonge drove by us in his big Ford Raptor in Encinitas. It was epic. A good omen even. We just wanted to kind of say, “Hey this is who we are, and this is what our world is like. This is Summer Years.” and I think we captured that really well.”
