MISS MAY I Shares Music Video For ‘Hand Me A Halo’ From Upcoming ‘No Place For Me’ Album
MISS MAY I have released a music video for their new single, ‘Hand Me A Halo’, ahead of their forthcoming album, ‘No Place For Me’. The song addresses losing one’s sense of identity and the intrusive thoughts that can follow, according to vocalist Levi Benton, while the album is presented as a personal and cathartic exploration of those feelings.
‘No Place For Me’ will be released on 2 October through Solid State Records and contains 10 tracks, including previously released single ‘Pray For Silence’. It is the band’s first album since 2022’s ‘Curse Of Existence’ and follows a period of lineup changes after founding guitarists B.J. Stead and Justin Aufdemkampe left in 2024; Elisha Mullins has since joined on guitar.
