Los Angeles, CA – Multi-Platinum Texas based rockers DROWNING POOL have recently been named a BLENDER BREAKOUT VIDEO on BLENDER.COM with their viral video for their new single “37 STITCHES.” The video features an acoustic performance of the song and highlights the band’s recent visit to Capitol Hill and meeting Democratic Presidential Nominee, Barack Obama.
Due to an overwhelming fan response on tour, online and a via a fan made YouTube video that reached over a quarter million views, the band has decided to release this song as their next single and shoot a brand new music video of “37 Stitches” to commercial radio on August 18th.
Commenting on “37 Stitches,” singer Ryan McCombs says, “This song means a lot to us as a band, and I’m really happy we’re getting the chance to put it out as a single. It’s a heartfelt song inspired by our loved ones… the unsung heroes who support us day after day, yet we’re the ones who get all the glory and spotlight. We hope that it resonates with our fans – old and new- who want to pay homage to their own support systems.”
