Today, The Dangerous Summer have released a brand new single, “Pacific Ocean.” The single is lifted from their new album, Gravity, which will be released on June 21st via Rude Records.
“Pacific Ocean” is a song that essentially is begging to be listened to at full volume with the windows down. At it’s fire, the song is “about freedom and living in the moment” according to frontman AJ Perdomo, “a love song at heart, and an ode to California.” The single is paired with a new music video that embodies the effervescent aura of the track, shot by the band themselves in Richmond, Virginia.
Perdomo continues, “I mention a story in the song, about my good friend Dan Geraghty almost getting shot by someone outside of a bar in LA. I want to express the emotion of being human and leveling with the world – there’s a number of words it takes to get to the center of it all. We shot the music video ourselves. It has been insanely rewarding to dive headfirst into our visuals, it allows us to really capture a new dimension to the music.”
