WATCH: Billy Lewis Jr. Lets Off Some Steam in Video for New Single 'Landslide'

Counterplay Management is pleased to announce the release of the video for "Landslide", the much anticipated new single from Billy Lewis Jr. ("Glee", Spring Awakening, Hair).

The video also features several familiar faces from the NYC theater and music community including, Jay Armstrong Johnson ("Quantico", On the Town, Hair), George Salazar (Godspell, Here Lies Love, Tick Tick Boom), Mike Preen, Mike Millan (Piece of My Heart, Sister Act), Will Blum (School of Rock, Book of Mormon), Emily Dowdell, Michael Linden (Spring Awakening), Jesse Ryan Lewis, Veronica Kelly, Bentley Black (We Will Rock You), and Ariana M. (acrobat/performer) Watch the video:

On writing 'Landslide', Lewis says, "Sometimes people say things so catastrophically offensive, that you have to wonder if they're even listening to themselves anymore". (Which is one of the several, catchy lyrical themes in this driving track). "People I know, and all around me are angry and concerned, and that's completely understandable. I hope this song gives you a vehicle to scream out those frustrations, and that it makes you feel heard and maybe even understood, even if it's just for 4 minutes".

"Conceptualizing the video happened quite organically", says A Brooks (producer). "With an overwhelming sign of the times provoking a shared disenchantment and a need to let off some steam, we invited a bunch of amazingly talented and similarly frustrated friends to the studio. We asked them to listen to the song once maybe twice, and step up to the mic and share their expression. They all showed up, and we captured it. It was a uniquely satisfying creative experience for sure".

'Landslide' is an original composition written by Billy Lewis Jr. and produced alongside longtime collaborators Erik Rudic, Nash Breen, Chad Sabo, and A Brooks. 'Landslide' is available now on most music platforms including iTunes. https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/landslide-single/id1191637867
