Free Throw unveil new single with a pretty great video

3 Jun, 2021

Free Throw are not only back with their third single from the upcoming album, but a homage to music venues they’ve missed playing this past year and a half. The Jez Pennigton animated video is a reminder of what bands have been robbed of during the pandemic. The sentiment is in keeping with Nashville band’s new album Piecing It Together, which finds them taking stock in what they value in life as well as some of the things taken for granted before touring life came to a crashing halt.

Ocular Pat Down is a song about people who can’t seem to put others before themselves, but will always be the first to get on a fake pedestal,” says drummer Kevin Garcia, “Throughout the last year, we saw so many venues, bars, etc that have felt like second homes to us on the road and at home, suffer immensely because of the pandemic. First to close, last to open, last to get the support. We wanted to highlight some of these places in the Ocular Pat Down video and bring some attention to a few killer venues that are still very much hurting or have had to close their doors for good.”
