This past October, Olivver the Kid (aka Bryan Sammis) stated his role as a solo artist when he released his impressive debut solo EP, Freak. One of the songs included on the project was the already-released “Attica ’71,” a song which draws inspiration from the four-day riots at New York state’s Attica Prison. Today, almost a year after it was first released, Sammis has shared the video for the track. The clip mirrors the song’s dark message, featuring the singer in a prison haunted by a past relationship. Says Sammis of the song:

When the Neighbourhood and I amicably parted ways last January I went into a frenzy of songwriting. It started out as a slow and sad song, but when I took the songs into the studio we really wanted to take it some place a little more alt-pop … Cue Danny Score. Danny has done a lot of production work for my friend Jez Dior and I hit him up about working on some tracks. He knew where [the song] needed to go and helped me get it there.

In addition, Sammis will also join Young Rising Sons and Halsey on The American Youth Tour this spring. Watch the video for “Attica ’71” above, listen to the acoustic version and please check out his other songs here , he has a gorgeous warm vocal and incredible production.

It’s been a pretty big year for Bryan Sammis. Around one year ago today, he left the band set up and his role as drummer in The Neighbourhood. But Since leaving, he has began to focus on his solo output as his alto ego Olivver the Kid, heading off in a different direction to that of his former bandmates. It couldn’t have been an easy decision to make, but it has since given us some great music. “Now You Know” was the first song he wrote after leaving the band. The  quality of his recorded output to date is superb. Check out the “Freak” EP also.
