Official press release:
Fast-rising hardcore band Southpaw FLHC — Alan King, guitar; Harrison Linder, drums; Marc Laroche, bass; and Daryn LaMontagne, vocals — have built their reputation brick by brick, focusing on the messages of self-empowerment, pushing through struggle, perseverance, and building a legacy that speaks to all walks of life.
They have announced their upcoming album The Standard, which arrives July 31 via Spinefarm. Pre-order it here.
The band has also thrown another haymaker in the form of the video for new single “Rolling Stone”. Watch it below. The band states:
“‘Rolling Stone’ leans into the reality of living a fast life on the road in pursuit of chasing your purpose. Losing loved ones and pieces of yourself along the way are part of the game. In the process of moving towards your purpose, the climb feels never ending, yet time continues on. But as a man, you must walk that line in order to create your own path and legacy. In honor of frontman Daryn Lamontagne‘s grandfather. Rest in power, Pops.”
Of the record the band declares:
“All gas, no brakes. Driven by hunger, discipline, and a relentless passion for the love of the game. This is The Standard.”
