“When You’re Sober” is accompanied by a music video, directed by Nicholas Jandora (24kgoldn, Lil Skies), which follows MILES through a chaotic series of events, encountering various characters along the way. Watch the video now below.
Of the new song, MILES mined inspiration from “the trials, tribulations, and heartbreak of moving to one of the craziest cities in America (Los Angeles).” He explained, “It’s also about forming an instant connection with someone, but the next day, nothing is the same.”
“One night, my team and I went through all the songs on the EP, and we felt like the project needed more live instrumentation” MILES added. “‘NEVER HAVE I EVER’ still needed some production work, and it seemed like the perfect song to record live drums on. I was so excited when word came back that Travis was going to hop on the track. I can’t wait for everyone to hear this new project and am thankful for everyone involved in it.”
