Marianas Trench | I Knew You When
Canadian progressive pop band Marianas Trench chronicles the trials and tribulations of a messy, passionate, and often gut-wrenching relationship. According to lead singer Josh Ramsay, the track is "not about drunken lust, or doing shots in a bar, or 'living life for just tonight,' but the kind of real-life relationship that takes a decade to build, through ups and downs." The group will kick off a North American tour this March--check out upcoming dates here.
