Black Veil Brides singer Andy Biersack has been working on a new solo project called Andy Black and his debut album, The Shadow Side, is slated for a May 6 release.
But fans are already getting an advance sampling with the new video for its lead single “We Don’t Have to Dance.”
Biersack has stated that his Andy Black music tends to be poppier than his work with Black Veil Brides, joking that it’s been described as “goth Springsteen,” and we see some of that goth vibe in the new clip. Shot in dramatic black and white, Biersack sings the catchy tune as we see alternating scenes of him in leather threads overlooking the Hollywood Hills, performing with his band or surrounded by women or booze.
Produced by John Feldmann, The Shadow Side is expected to include collaborations with Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump, Gerard Way, Good Charlotte’s Joel Madden, 5 Seconds of Summer’s Ashton Irwin and All Time Low’s Rian Dawson.
