State Champs release new music video for ‘Mine Is Gold’

STATE CHAMPS have released a brand new music video!

The new music video, for the track Mine Is Gold, is taken from the pop punk rockers upcoming new album Living Proof which is scheduled to be released in June this year. Speaking about the track, Derek DiScanio says, “if you’ve ever been betrayed, bullied, or doubted by someone close to you, Mine Is Gold is for you. This one hits home for us in a range of ways and gives us a sense of pride after the musical risk we took on the chorus of this song especially. We took a lot of influence from bands like CARTEL and SAVES THE DAY on this song and the way they can shape dynamics and changes in energy.”

Alongside the release of the new music video, the band have announced a headlining European and UK tour for this October and November. Support for the tour comes from SEAWAYSTAND ATLANTIC and WOES and speaking about the tour, bassist Ryan Scott Graham says, “after a long cycle on Around The World and Back, we’re excited about being back to Europe with Living Proof out in the world. We’ve got a whole new batch of songs, bigger and better production than we’ve ever done, as well as a new attitude. Europe has always proved to us that it is a place that loves CHAMPS and we fully recognise and appreciate that, which is why we will never stop coming. See you soon!”
