We had so much fun shooting the video for “Odds Are” with Rooster Teeth, we decided to team up with them again to shoot the music video for “Did I Say That Out Loud”. Check out this behind-the-scenes webisode where all 4 band members talk a little bit about the making of the music video.

Stay tuned for the official music video, and in the meantime be sure to pre-order The Long Weekend EP if you’re in Canada, and keep an eye out for Grinning Streak Deluxe in the US – Both coming out on July 1st!
