April 19, 2019 – New York, NY – Alt-pop group, lovelytheband today released the music video for their latest single, “maybe, i’m afraid,” which follows the band’s debut smash hit single, “broken” that racked up over 226 million streams worldwide and broke the Alternative Songs Chart record with 72 weeks on the chart and nine weeks at No.1. “Broken” spent 9 weeks at #1 at ALT radio in Canada. The “maybe, i’m afraid” music video tells a beautiful coming of age story about a man who spends his entire life struggling with self-acceptance.
After learning that LGBTQ Americans in 30 states can legally be fired, evicted or denied service just because of their sexuality, lovelytheband has joined forces with the “Beyond I Do” campaign for this video to help promote acceptance, empathy and understanding for the millions of Americans who can be kicked out of their homes, fired from their jobs or denied services for simply living as their authentic selves. lovelytheband believes that LBGTQ Americans shouldn’t have to be afraid that they’ll lose their homes or jobs, simply because of who they love and who they are.
