Driver Friendly and Hopeless Records are very excited to announce the premiere of the band’s new music video for their song “Run”! Fans can watch the video now exclusively on MTV Buzzworthy! It was filmed over the course of two nights in an abandoned school in Smithville, TX with over 30 televisions the band had found at various garage sales or on Craigslist. The video was shot and directed by Driver Friendly’s own drummer, Jeremi Mattern!

“We feel this is our best music video to date because the visual element it adds to the music is so unique; we’ve never seen anything quite like it. Originally, we weren’t going to perform in front of the TVs, but we realized we wanted the lyrics to connect directly with the audience and so we filmed ourselves singing with the TVs in the background. The result is a powerful image and shows the energy and positivity we try to bring to our live shows” – Tyler Welsh, Driver Friendly
“Run” can be heard on the band’s newest EP “Peaks + Valleys” which was released June 4th, 2013! Fans can purchase it on iTunes here: http://smarturl.it/PeaksValleysiTunes
