Born Without Bones announce new album ‘Dancer’

BORN WITHOUT BONES have announced a new album!

Titled Dancer, the upcoming album from the Massachusetts-based indie punk band is their brand new full-length record and is scheduled to be released in November this year, via Pure Noise Records.

The upcoming album was produced by Mike Sapone [OSO OSO, TAKING BACK SUNDAY, CYMBALS EAT GUITARS]. “We each have so much invested into BORN WITHOUT BONES,” vocalist/guitarist Scott Ayotte explains about the upcoming new album. “Sometimes it’s a cloud raining on us, sometimes it’s a bright sun that makes for a beautiful day that we can share with our friends and families. Making Dancer was three years of writing songs and learning about ourselves. Dancer is the hardest I’ve ever worked on anything in my life and it made me work harder on myself as a person, a creative, a bandmate and a friend.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; the title track Dancer. The new music video is the first in a series of videos. “We filmed three videos along with a dinner scene. The concept is that each of the three videos stars one of the three daughters in our ‘family’ as they spin off into their own interests and paths,” Ayotte explains. “The dinner scene sets up the storyline to allow for each of the three daughters to set off on their own story. In the first installment you’ll follow the character of Dancer on her journey around Worcester, MA looking for acceptance. Follow along in the coming weeks to see where her sisters Bee and XO venture off to after their Sunday dinner.

With this first song, I wrote the verse and chorus and then when I reflected on the lyrics I started to imagine this character: the Dancer. I imagined a person who had left home to try and carve out a place for themselves in this world. They found themselves in a place where they were appreciated for what they do, not who they are. I thought maybe Dancer grew up in the desert, a barren place where you really have to look for life. She had left hoping to escape and find herself in a place beaming with life. Maybe her parents had passed on and left her the house she had grown up in back in the desert. She had never found true love or acceptance in her journey because she wasn’t really running towards something, she was running away. She decides to move back home to the house she inherited and it’s not clear if she’ll face her demons or succumb to them.”
