NEW ORLEANS, LA (October 23, 2020) – Folk band Burris are releasing their latest album Over You Pt. 1 on November 13. Over You is a two part album that tells the story of a break-up and the whirlwind of emotions that follow. It starts with the heavy hitting “Under The Ash Tree,” an angry song about the gut-wrenching end to a relationship. The album then continues on to depict the ups and downs of getting over someone. It relays the feelings we all know and can relate to like sorrow, regret, forgiveness, longing, and confusion.
“To me, this album represents lost love,” says Chris Hochkeppel, the band’s founder and frontman. “Most of these songs were written after my first real heartbreak. It was a pain I had never felt before and still am learning from to this day.” Each track on the album will be paired with a music video, each set to release over time after the album is out. Hochkeppel hopes that Burris has created a work of art that not only comforts, but also inspires those who have or will endure heartbreak. “There is always a period of grief and pain, but eventually those emotions are complimented by strength, knowledge, and growth,” says Hochkeppel.
