Greyson recently shared of the track, “‘Sunshine and City Lights’ is all about falling in love with your youth and staying young. When I was writing the song, I was inspired by what I do with my friends back home and even being mischievous sometimes. The video is an extension of that. It’s about two Long Island kids sneaking out into the big city overnight – having fun and being teenagers.”
Greyson Chance gets back to work on recording his new EP in this new video inside the studio.
The 15-year-old musician treated fans to a little sneak peek of his EP, Truth Be Told Part 1 by releasing 90 second clips. Check them out on YouTube!
Greyson will be headed back to Asia to promote the new record next month.
“You know I really wanted to put out an EP to kinda, to give to my fans a preview for the record and something that they could really enjoy,” Greyson shared with the PhilStar. “You know I haven’t put out new music in a pretty long time now, I want to give something to the fans, and it just kinda came about very, very quickly and I’m just so excited like I said to put this out, and I think the fans will be very surprised by it and I think they’re really gonna enjoy the ride.”
The 15-year-old musician tweeted what the new EP contains, “The new stuff is much more stripped down and organic. I wrote all the songs so that they have this personal connection when one listens. My goal is that when someone listens to the new stuff, they feel this overwhelming connection. I want them to understand it! Cause at the end of the day, art must come and connect to the heart not the mind. #truthbetold.”
Greyson spent most of the weekend filming the video for lead single, “Sunshine & City Lights.”
“Shooting on the train. Instead of using a fake looking set, we took over a subway car. So much more real. #sclvideo,” he wrote.
Greyson‘s EP will feature five tracks including “Sunshine & City Lights,” “You Might Be The One,” “Leila,” “California Sky,” and “Take My Heart.”
