Sons of Apollo release new live video for ‘Just Let Me Breathe

SONS OF APOLLO have released a new live music video!

The new live clip, shows the band performing the DREAM THEATER track Just Let Me Breathe, a song from Mike Portnoy & Derek Sherinian’s time in the band. The live clip is taken from the band’s upcoming new live album, Live With The Plovdiv Psychotic Symphony, which is scheduled to be released in August.

Speaking about the live clip, Mike Portnoy says, “in writing the setlist for SONS OF APOLLO’s very first tour, I knew we had to include a few songs from the DREAM THEATER album Falling Into Infinity which was the only full length studio album we did while Derek was in the band. I wanted to do Just Let Me Breathe as it’s one of the deeper cuts on the album and I knew SOA would absolutely slay it! Between Bumble, Derek & Billy‘s crazy guitar, keys & bass unison sections and Jeff‘s overall driving, funky vocal delivery (with myself on the verses & chorus and Bumble on the bridge), I knew the SONS would breathe a whole new life into this track and even kick it up a few notches! Plus, as the song’s lyricist, I took artistic license and changed the lyric from Shannon Hoon to Chris Cornell to give it a little more relevance in 2019.”

Live With The Plovdiv Psychotic Symphony is set for release on August 30th via InsideOut Music.
