^ Keep New Times Free Support Us LocalCommunityJournalismI Support Support the independent voice of Miami and help keep the future of New Times free. Nearly a year later, the band is finally releasing the music video for the title track, which at first seemed an unassuming venture but has inadvertently turned into an ode to Miami's music scene.
