“These are two of the songs that we’re most proud of says,” Set Your Goals front man, Jordan Brown. “The recording process was the easiest it’s ever been, especially for the vocals and the lyrics, and we’re really excited to work with Chad Gilbert. We have a great connection and known each other for a while and it felt like he was a part of the band writing with all of us.”

Chad Gilbert, guitarist for New Found Glory offers, “I’ve always wanted to work with Set Your Goals and I’m so happy it finally worked out. I felt I was a perfect match for their staple sound!
