“We chose ‘Lean On Me’ because it’s a song that’s really timely right now,” says guitarist Brad Tursi. “Everyone’s just a little on edge and we need to lean on each other in these times. We switched it up and made the chords just a little bit more angsty and put our own spin on it so we hope you all like it.”
