Backstory:
Sure-Footed Video began as an impromptu collaboration between four college friends: lead vocalist and guitarist James Sullivan, drummer Aaron Gibbons, keyboardist Neil Donovan, and bassist Mike Keating. The band was born in the bustling dorm rooms of Boston University in 2011, where they initially performed at small gigs and dorm parties. Their unique sound, influenced by the daily hustle and grunge aesthetics of college life, soon caught the attention of a small independent record label, leading to their first EP release in 2013. The band is renowned for their raw, energetic performances, and their lyrics often reflect an array of humanistic and existential themes.

“Static Remembrance”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse Am, G, F, C)
Am G
In the cold light, we were spinning,
F C
Chasing shadows, just beginning,
Am G
Twilight whispers, secrets spilling,
F C
In the haze of static remembrance.
(Chorus Dm, Am, C, G)
Dm Am
Like a sure-footed video, we play,
C G
In the echoes of yesterday.
Dm Am
In the neon folds of twilight sway,
C G
We dance, in static remembrance.
(Verse)
Am G
Under starlight, words were falling,
F C
Silent promises, night was stalling,
Am G
Lost in tempo, hearts recalling,
F C
The rhythm of static remembrance.
(Chorus)
Dm Am
Like a sure-footed video, we loop,
C G
In the dreamscape of our youth.
Dm Am
In the waning glow of truth,
C G
We fade, in static remembrance.
