X Ambassadors - Smoke On the Highway (Official Visualizer)

4 Apr 2024 

Lyrics: 

Oh Roll one up in the backseat we can Go Go riding around this ghost-town, I smell Smoke Smoke on the Highway With you right beside me They built a mall on Iroquois burial-ground There’s nothing sacred in this God-forsaken town We drive past MacCormick Prison out on 79 Getting high Just you and I Two young hooligans Best friends on a suicide mission Too young to pretend There’s anything better And I said Oh Roll one up in the backseat we can Go Go riding around this ghost-town, I smell Smoke Smoke on the Highway With you right beside me Lost his job last week bagging groceries at the P&C They caught him stealing ribeyes, high on percs and OC’s We all laughed when we saw his pants were stained with blood It’s a tough break… … When you play for high steaks. Two young hooligans Best friends on a suicide mission Too young to pretend There’s anything better And I said Oh Roll one up in the backseat we can Go Go riding around this ghost-town, I smell Smoke Smoke on the Highway With you right beside me Oh Roll one up in the backseat we can Go Go riding around this ghost-town, I smell Smoke Smoke on the Highway With you right beside me

I was terrified to write this song.

When I first started thinking about 'Townie', I had an idea to write a song about every member of the band. I was going to write one for Adam, one for Russ, and then I realized that I would have to write a song about my brother, Casey. My stomach instantly went into knots. It scared me so much-- not only because distilling our entire relationship into a single song seemed so daunting, but also because knew that I'd have to talk very candidly about a pretty big elephant in the room.

Casey is blind. He was born blind due to a genetic disorder called Senior-Løken syndrome. It's public knowledge but I still get uncomfortable talking about Casey's disability because I don't want it to seem like that's the only defining thing about him or about our relationship. But it would be dishonest to act like it isn't.

I've helped my brother navigate through the world my whole life. He uses a cane, and I'm often also guiding him by the shoulder. But I can't tell you the number of times I've had both of my arms full of guitars and amps, Casey's got a keyboard strapped to his back, another keyboard in one hand and his cane in the other; and I've had to guide him through a dark dingy venue simply by yelling at him-- "A little to the right-- stop! Just to the left-- no, your other left-- Okay, over here, I'm right here." Just a voice in the dark, reaching out.

Casey is a fiercely independent person. He hates having to rely on anyone. But he is often forced to. I absolutely love being able to help and to heroically set my needs aside for anyone... So as you can imagine this dynamic has created some tension. But as far as co-dependent relationships go (lol), I think ours has blossomed into a pretty healthy one.

When I finally sat down to write this song, it ended up being very easy. Because despite how complicated it is in my own mind, objectively it's very simple: we love each other a lot.

Casey— being your brother has been the greatest gift I could've ever asked for. And for all the times I’ve used you to skip to the front of the line at the airport, I’ll love you forever.

X Ambassadors - Half-Life (Official Performance Video)

14 Mar 2024

Lyrics:

Tired of tearing my heart out

Just to feel it beat

Tired of crying my eyes out

Just to fall asleep

All the stupid things I’ve tried

To medicate my lonely nights

You got here just in time

I’ve

Been living a half-life

My whole life

Till I loved you

And I’ve

Been living a half-life

But it was no life

Till I loved you

Kissing me in your car in the dark I just

I just fall apart

Suddenly I can feel everything, and it’s

And it’s all your fault

All the stupid things I’ve tried

Tried to fill this hole inside

You got here just in time

I’ve

Been living a half-life

My whole life

Till I loved you

And I’ve

Been living a half-life

But it was no life

Till I loved you

Ohh

I’ve

Been living a half-life

My whole life

Till I loved you

And I’ve

Been living a half-life

But it was no life

Till I loved you

Till I loved you

X AMBASSADORS – “NO STRINGS”

The fiery pop-rock band announce release date for upcoming album, “Townie”, with first single, “No Strings” alongside nostalgic visuals.

The pop-rock group – comprising of brothers, Sam Nelson Harris and Casey Harris, alongside Adam Levin – have blazed a trail in their career, dropping an explosive debut album, extensive global touring and huge hits with “Unsteady” and “Renegades”, alongside collaborations with fellow industry heavyweights, Lizzo, Rihanna, The Weeknd and SZA.

The band has just released the debut single, “No Strings,” from their upcoming album, accompanied by an official music video. In this infectious track, the rockers showcase an intimate side with tender vocals and lively acoustics. While the song beautifully captures the essence of their hometown, it takes an exhilarating turn around the one-minute mark. The tempo rises, unveiling a bouncing, rousing alternative rock anthem that positions the group for an exciting year ahead in 2024.

Reflecting on the track’s inspirations, lead vocalist, Sam Nelson Harris, shares, “Ithaca is so isolated, and growing up there like Casey and I did we did whatever we could to give ourselves little ways to escape: riding around town aimlessly on our bikes, on city busses, or in our parents cars; getting lost in the woods, getting into whatever trouble we could find, dangling our feet off the edges of waterfalls with our friends, making out with high school crushes on the cold winter night, snot dribbling into each other’s mouths… ways that make you feel like the world is bigger, and like there’s nothing holding you back from getting out there.” He continues, “As a grown man, I’ve fallen back in love with upstate NY, and I oddly feel blessed to have had something to rally so hard against/fight to escape from as a kid. You can’t hide who you are, and who you are is where you’re from. ‘No Strings’ is an anthem for the lost and hungry—in forgotten cities and towns and townships all over the world—whose restlessness will always burn, and keep the fire in their bellies fed.”

“Townie” marks a compelling new chapter for the group as they return to their upstate New York roots. With a set of deeply introspective and personal tracks, the group crafts an intricate portrait of their hometown and surrounding community.

Touching on the eagerly anticipated arrival of the album, Sam moves on to share, “A gas station glows in the night, two miles from the Tompkins County line. It cuts through the bleak, winter night like a grotesque, twenty-first century lighthouse. To the east— the college town of Ithaca, NY. To the west, everything else. The air is cold and unforgiving. The landscape every shade of grey and brown on the color-wheel. A couple of teenagers loiter in the parking lot, plotting their escape. Most of them know they won’t ever leave this town, so tonight their escape is a temporary one. Rollies and half-drank liters of Mountain Dew. Grapefruit blunts and chapped lips. Their baggy clothes full of restlessness and longing. This is Townie.”

Filmed in Ithaca, New York, the video was recorded via the creative lens of childhood friend, Danny Pfeffer with the help of his students at Cornell University.
