Song: Highland - 525
So I recently learned about Highland, a pop-punk band from L.A. Today, the band released a song about staying positive. With the release of “525", the pop-punkers wanted to send a message to anyone who is struggling. It’s a song for those that find themselves dealing with depression, hopelessness, or hardships.
“These lyrics, especially in the first verse, stemmed from my own internal dialogue as I was treating an individual who suffered from severe depression and suicidal ideation,” says Dylan, vocalist of the band, who also happens to be a professional therapist.
How posi is it that someone who works in a field trying to help people is also using their art to send a message of empathy, support, and encouragement? That’s the whole point here. We need more of that, especially during these times!
Keep your eyes on this band for future jams!
