Filmed live at the legendary Abbey Road Studios<\/strong> in London, England, The Grahams<\/strong> share their “One More Heartbreak<\/strong><\/a>” video exclusively via<\/em> American Songwriter<\/strong><\/u><\/a> today (June 10, 2020<\/strong>). “One More Heartbreak” is the third in their series of live performances filmed and recorded at the iconic studio, following \u201cHeartbroken Town<\/a><\/strong>\u201d and \u201cSearching The Milky Way<\/a><\/strong>.” The three tracks are taken from their new album KIDS LIKE US<\/strong><\/em><\/a>(released on March 27, 2020<\/strong> via<\/em> 3 Sirens Music Group\/RED MUSIC\/The Orchard<\/strong>) and all feature one special connection: a deep heartbreak that they experienced in their lives. Most notably, “Searching The Milky Way” was written as an ode to the band\u2019s good friend and producer Richard Swift<\/strong> (The Shins, Damien Jurado, Nathaniel Rateliff<\/em>). KIDS LIKE US <\/em>was the last album Richard produced before his passing; co-producer Dan Molad<\/strong> (Lucius, Elizabeth & the Catapult, The Wild Reeds<\/em>) later took over the project. 

Captivating vocalist Alyssa Graham<\/strong> dives deep into heartache and torment, focusing all the power from these emotions into her performance of \u201cOne More Heartbreak\u201d. Doug Graham<\/strong>\u2019s backup vocals float into the mix, offering strength and security during the chorus, elevating the desolation expressed in this song. WATCH \u201cONE MORE HEARTBREAK\u201d HERE<\/a><\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2018One More Heartbreak\u2019 is that epic \u2018heartbreak\u2019 song that we\u2019ve always struggled to write,\u201d Alyssa explains to American Songwriter. \u201cAs many people know, Doug and I have been together our entire lives – since we were kids playing [childhood games] Ding Dong Ditch<\/em> and Kick the Can<\/em> in the Jersey Suburbs. We\u2019ve been in love the whole time, so writing a heartbreak song has always been a challenge. I think we wanted to tell the story of our greatest fear, which would ultimately be losing each other,\u201d she explains. “Our love affair isn’t perfect, it’s not without its share of heart wrenching explosions. This is why the resolve of the song is actually, \u2018is it too late for one more heartbreak?\u2019 I think both of us believe it\u2019s never too late if you love each other as brutally deeply as we do.\u201d 

Recording in Abbey Road Studios<\/strong> was a dream-come-true experience for the band. \u201cI don\u2019t know exactly how it happened or what cosmic forces came together to create this opportunity for us, but I know that besides maybe our wedding, and the unexpected early birth of our daughter, it was the most surreal and mind-altering experience we\u2019ve had to date. Not to mention we got to do it together with our full band (who we adore) and our eight month-old baby girl Georgette.\u201d During their recording at Abbey Road, they say that they felt the \u201cpower of something supernatural\u201d, \u201cthe beauty and energy of all the inspiring music of our lives, something way bigger than us. We will carry that with us forever.\u201d <\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

KIDS LIKE US<\/em> was inspired not only by their upbringing as kids growing up but also by their \u201cwild and eye-opening\u201d motorcycle journey across America on Route 66 during the 2016 election season. \u201cIt was dangerous, infuriating, magical and extraordinarily romantic. It made us take a hard look at The America we live in now vs. The America we grew up in together.\u201d All the songs on the record including \u201cOne More Heartbreak\u201d are part of this experience and that inevitable comparison. \u201cI think certain songs like \u201cKids Like Us<\/strong>\u201d and \u201cBite My Tongue<\/strong>\u201d explore an angry side of this journey, perhaps a loss of something innocent. Whereas songs like \u201cMr. G<\/strong>\u201d and \u201cOne More Heartbreak<\/strong>\u201d are a response to that anger, a longing and ultimately a conscious decision to choose love.\u201d At the end of the day, as they expressed above, it\u2019s never too late to choose love. <\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
