Framing Hanley released their second single from their upcoming album Sumner Roots -due out early 2019- a few weeks ago. The song is titled Baggage Claim and can be streamed or downloaded at all digital outlets.
Frontman Kenneth Nixon on Baggage Claim: "I've never been a fan of talking about the meaning behind a song to the songwriter, because it's a songwriter's goal usually to write a song that someone can relate to themselves. It's funny, though, because when people hear this song, they'll likely have a much different takeaway than what this song means to us. This song was written about the stranglehold that music, and moreover, the music industry had on us 4 years ago when we first considered walking away. Just the feeling of wanting to change one's identity, everything about oneself, to have a fresh start. Yet every time we tried to distance ourselves from music, it was right there; threatening to pull us back under."
Baggage Claim is a strong, melodic, heartfelt number that confirms the band has matured both musically and lyrically.
The first song off of the upcoming new album, Puzzle Pieces, was released last summer and has already surpassed 2 million streams.
