Muted colors, a deserted coastal pier, and a cozy beach bonfire create a comfortable environment as the band runs around together, smiling and laughing.
The accompanying music video on the other hand, plays with the carefree nature of youth. It takes the listener to that familiar place where emotions are blinding, and you simply must do something about them, whether or not they make any sense. The song makes you want to stand up and march toward something important. The track itself, off their new album Truth in Comedy released by Lame-O Records, features a heavy guitar rhythm, plenty of crash cymbals, and a cascading, nicely flowing keyboard combo to balance it all out. Initially released through Alternative Press, the band’s new music video for “Indifferent Belushi” continues to play on the youthful vigor of the band’s music. He highlights Huber’s voice above the instrumentation by making it crisper while maintaining its absolute imperfection, which lends itself well to Steady Hands’ youthful, grungy style. In addition, their producer Brian McTear no doubt plays a large role in crafting their sound. While the band certainly has the DIY ethos covered and in a different way quite moody, Steady Hands jumps at you with aggressive percussion, driving rhythm guitar, and a singer that pulls on the emotional strings of adolescent excitement and urgency that lingers in all of us. At first glance, and with no prior context, these men in floral button downs and skinny jeans invoke an instant thought of alterna-synth, or some off-the-wall DIY genre. From the many people and friends who came to play with him, Steady Hands eventually solidified into a five-piece alternative rock outfit -that aside from Huber - includes William Lindsay, Andrew Kirnan, George Legatos, and Richard Straub. Though Huber did backing vocals for Modern Baseball, he now primarily flexes his vocal chords by singing punchy lines that dominate Steady Hands’ songs.īeginning as a solo project, Steady Hands quickly turned into a collaborative hodgepodge of Philadelphia musicians filtering in and out of Huber’s creative space. Sean Huber, most commonly known as the drummer for Modern Baseball, began a solo project in 2012 that placed him as the front man and guitarist of what would eventually become Steady Hands. Steady Hands comes from a tight knit music community in Philadelphia where there seem to be links connecting everyone.
