MISS MAY I Are "Highbrow Thieves" As Band Shares Video For New Single - New Album "No Place For Me" Out October 2 Via Solid State Records

MISS MAY I — Levi Benton [vocals], Jerod Boyd [drums], Ryan Neff [bass], and Elisha Mullins [guitar ] — will unleash their new album "NO PLACE FOR ME" on October 2 via Solid State Records. Pre-order it here.

Today, they are "Highbrow Thieves."

Actually, no, they're not.

That's just the title of their new single.

The track isn't about a typical theft of a thing that does not belong to you, but rather, the theft of much more valuable and often scarce personal resource.

"'Highbrow Thieves' is written from the perspective of someone worked to the bone, taking orders from people with no remorse for who they're giving them to. The 'thieves' here aren't after riches or objects — what they're really stealing is something far more valuable: Time," says Benton.

Regarding the album, the singer reveals it was a truly cathartic process to write and record it, saying, "No Place For Me is everything I've felt for a long time but never had the words for. Writing it taught me who I actually am even when that hurt to look at. It's a full journey: Where it started, what I discovered, and where I am today." These are the tentpole concepts of the album and are why fans are going to connect with it on a level so deep, it touches marrow.
