NEW ALBUM RISE AS EQUALS OUT NOW VIA SPINEFARM RECORDS
Iowa-based rock quartet SAUL — brothers
Blake Bedsaul [lead vocals] and Zach Bedsaul [lead guitar, backup vocals], William
McIlravy [bass, backup vocals], and Myles Clayborne [drums] — have shared
the video for the title track from Rise As Equals.
The album is out now via Spinefarm Records.
Watch the “Rise As Equals” video here.
The footage was filmed on “Saul Day” in the band’s hometown of
Sutherland and it as a true exchange of energy between the band and its
fans, known as “Equals.”
“The Equals traveled from states away to our little hometown in Northwest
Iowa to be a part of this video,” says Blake. “There was an
energy during the whole day that felt like electricity. Everyone was buzzing
and happy. This was more than a music video shoot. This is what happiness looks
like.”
2020 has been a wild ride for Saul — as much as it has been for most of the
world but the band has reached a professional and personal summit with the
release of Rise As Equals. Ever since releasing the single “Brother”
as unknowns and watching it climb to No. 1 on SiriusXM’s Octane, the band
has slowly but steadily built a passionate fanbase, one that even traveled to
be a part of the video shoot for a song and record that specifically
references them by name. Saul’s journey thus far is crystalized by the
video, which demonstrates the direct connection with fans during a
time when human beings are in most need of exactly that.
Watch the futuristic and cinematic video for the lead single “King
of Misery” here or here. It serves as the band’s
second No. 1 at SiriusXM’s Octane and is continuing to ascend the national
radio charts.
