Along with revealing their national tour dates, Old Mervs have shared new single, ‘Everyone Will See It’. Another slice of feel-good summer rock with a joyful hook, the tune is everything you could want from an Old Mervs release.
Speaking about the single, singer Dave House says, “It was the first song we wrote together with Chris Collins. We had some spare time at the end of the week’s recording and decided to see what we could come up with. It feels fresh for us I think, and it definitely has a different groove which is always a nice change up. We wanted a big chorus for a big singalong so hopefully that’s what we get!”
The single is accompanied by a music video filmed by Annie Lila and edited by Andrew Briggs. It features behind-the-scenes footage of the lads recording their debut at Collins’ studio in the Byron Hinterland.
