WATCH: Get ‘Lost Among the Avenues’ with The Mad Sugars

There’s nothing like falling in love underneath the bright city lights.

The Mad Sugars — who, you should know, just released their much-anticipated full-length album, Personal Space — give us that sweet feeling with the new music video for focus track, “Lost Among the Avenues.”

The video — shot by Nita Ann — takes us through popular Nashville haunts including Printers Alley and Sid Gold’s Request Room, as frontman Adam Lawrence sings about the adventure of embarking on a night on the town with a new flame.

Sonically, those who are familiar with The Mad Sugars will be happy with this one, as it’s another example of the band’s penchat for high-powered, highly danceable alt-rock. With that being said, there’s also a Killers-esque new wave sensibility that comes to the forefront, with radiant synths that shimmer like the city skyline on a clear summer night.

Get “lost” with this one below. It’s an experience you’ll never forget!

WATCH: The Mad Sugars Cook Up Trouble with ‘Dare Me’

The Mad Sugars ft. Monte Mader - Dare Me

For all the potential downsides, mischief can certainly have its fun moments.

The Mad Sugars — our favorite storytellers when it comes to tales of nightlife misadventures — capture that sense of fleeting, restless merriment in the music video for “Dare Me,” featuring Nashville-based vocalist Monte Mader. Directed by Brian Thompson and shot at Helping Our Music Evolve, the video is an opportunity for the band to let loose in the spirit of high-energy rock and roll.

“‘Dare Me’ is a dance rock tribute to the nights you hit it off with someone who makes you want to go out and get into trouble,” the band said.

“Dare Me” is from the band’s forthcoming full-length album, Personal Space, available everywhere on March 22. You can pre-order the album here, and watch the video below!

Summer may be (unofficially) over, but don’t tell that to The Brummies. If their new single, “After Midnight,” is any indication, they’re still fully focused on bringing the heat.
