DREAMERS

Los Angeles-based trio DREAMERS have collaborated with Big Boi of Outkast and UPSAHL on a new single "Palm Reader" out now via HOLLYWOOD. It's the follow up to “True Crime” ft DeathByRomy from The Palm Reader EP that dropped on March 5th. DREAMERS singer Nick Wold has been a huge fan of Outkast since the early 2000s so big boi’s involvement was like a dream for him and his bandmates.

“The ‘Palm Reader’ video is a nice dream gone bad. Wold said, "A strange 80’s suburban life, with a beautiful house and a beautiful yard, and yet our protagonist finds misery and struggle at every turn. He spills his drink, the hose and lawn mower come to life and attack him like maniacal monsters. With performances from the one and only Big Boi and the one and only UPSAHL, it's a wet hot summer fever dream, and I sometimes can’t believe it’s real." 

The video features Nick with three love interests as he pokes fun at tarot, crystals and magic yet things get a bit weird when a garden hose and lawn mower attack him. Each love interest represents how life always has a way of throwing twists and turns out of nowhere. Big Boi drops a verse at the 2 minute mark with wisdom such as use your “third eye pineal gland / now that’s a birds eye view to always overstand.” In the final scene, Nick magically catches on fire but still can’t keep away from the mysterious girl who has been toying with his heart as he sings “now you’re telling me my future knowing I’ll believe ya / you know I gotta have it / feels like black magic.”

DREAMERS was formed in 2014 in New York. The band is currently made up of Nick Wold (lead vocals & guitar), Marc Nelson (bass, keyboard & vocals) and Jacob Lee Wick (drums & vocals). They have released two full-length albums, This Album Does Not Exist (2016) and Launch Fly Land (2019). They have also put out several EPs along the way, including their newest release The Palm Reader.
