Black Veil Brides’ vocalist Andy Black has unveiled his solo music video ‘We Don’t Have To Dance’
March 22, 2016
Black Veil Brides’ frontman Andy Biersack is currently concentrating on his solo project, Andy Black, and here comes his new video for the catchy track ‘We Don’t Have To Dance.’ Andy Black chose black and white format for the clip, which correlates with the singer’s last name. Biersack says ‘We Don’t Have To Dance’ is hands down one of his favorite tracks from the record: “…and it was fun to write about loathing social events, hatred of small talk and refusal to dance at clubs haha!”, he adds. You can watch ‘We Don’t Have To Dance’ video below.
Andy Black’s debut album The Shadow Side is due for release May 6, and pre-orders are already available now. It is a dark yet light alternative record. “The songs are pop rock, fun songs. You know there’s certainly a kind of an element to the ’80s in there with Depeche Mode and Sisters of Mercy and that kind of thing,” says Biersack. “We were joking the other day that it’s goth Springsteen.” The guests on the new record are My Chemical Romance‘s Gerard Way, All Time Low‘s Rian Dawson, The Used‘s Quinn Allman, 5 Seconds to Summer’s Ashton Irwin and Less Than Jake’s JR Wasilewski.
Recently, the tour dates for Black’s first tour have been announced. First, the tour will run in the UK from May 10 through May 20, with the final show in London. Punk band Creeper will serve as support at UK shows. Then Biersack will fly back to the US for an extensive tour leg booked into early September.
