Mississippi indie folk band Happy Landing have released their new single “Lose The Gun.”

Yesterday, the band delivered the music video for the tune, which was directed by Sumter Sessoms and Happy Landing drummer Jacob Christensen. The visual can be seen below. Vocalist Matty Hendley said this about the new song, which is out on digital services right now:

“I wrote Lose The Gun in the stairwell before our show last fall in Orange County, CA. It probably took me 10 minutes. That hardly ever happens. It was like the words were already written and I just needed to put them down on paper. I realized recently that there is a deep connection to this song with my own life…there’s a lot of resistance to give yourself whole to something. A big one for me was pursuing my passion for music. Better off dying with an undivided heart.”

Happy Landing will have a slew of festival appearances in the following months, including Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets are on sale to the general public right now here.
