Southern California’s very own Joyce Manor, have shared a special music video for their song “Did You Ever Know?” in collaboration with Best Friends Animal Society!

From their critically acclaimed new album ‘40 oz to Fresno’ the song’s music video acts as a PSA promoting pet adoption, filmed onsite at Best Friends' Lifesaving Center in Los Angeles and depicting the band as they tour the facilities and visit with some of the cats and dogs currently in its care. The band of animal lovers also included endearing home footage of themselves with their furry friends at the end of the video.

Explaining his personal connection to Best Friends and his experience with pet adoption, bassist Matt Ebert says, “Adopting my dog, Violet from Best Friends back in 2015 was one of the best decisions I've ever made, and it has completely changed my life for the better. I've wanted to work with the rescue for years, and they were gracious enough to show us around their facility and educate us about everything that goes into their goal of making every shelter across the country a no-kill shelter by 2025. I hope anyone considering a new pet takes the time to consider the major benefits of rescuing theirs!”
