"'Red Balloon' tells a story of a balloon that's alone, ashamed and tied down to all of its troubles and worries in the world," Drew says. "A storm comes through the town, the storm being harsh reality, and that kinda becomes the catalyst for flying away, getting unhooked from the storm. And when it goes up into the sky it sees everything from up high and realizes that everything's connected and pretty much sees the bigger picture. That song is my favorite, lyrically, because it tells the whole story of awakening."
Also today, Drew and his NSN bandmates are featured on an episode of "At Guitar Center" Web Series, which includes an interview and exclusive live performance. Click here to view.
