A JT Ibanez-directed video for “Say My Name” from Hillhaven (ex-Ice Nine Kills, etc.) found its way out today, May 09th. That song shows off the band’s revised lineup, which has seen guitarists Ricky Armellino (Ice Nine Kills) and Jimmy Bennett (From Ashes To New), as well as drummer Maty Madiro (From Ashes To New), exit the fold. Vocalist Chris Kelly and bassist Jamie GoWell remain onboard, with Chris LaPlante joining on guitars and Zach Moiser on drums.
Kelly commented of that:
“‘Say My Name‘ marks a new, more refined and developed era of Hillhaven. We’ve worked to combine several of the various elements listeners loved from last year’s cycle of music and, simply put — the project is taking on a clearer identity. I’m incredibly honored and grateful to welcome my good friends Zach Moiser and Chris LaPlante into the fold. To say I’m excited for audiences to see these guys in action is a gross understatement.
Equal honor and gratitude needs to be extended to Ricky Armellino, Maty Madiro, and Jimmy Bennet for being a part of last year’s cycle, as well as Hillhaven‘s debut live performance. Their individual talent cannot be overstated and I am beyond proud to call them my friends. It is no secret to anyone that they will continue to do great things within their respective bands.”
The boys and I are eternally grateful for the audience that has rallied around us. We’re excited for another year of new music and growth, and can’t wait to show everyone what we’ve been up to.”
