“Fugitive,” the third single from Adventure Rock Spectacle, STUNTDRIVER, is a dancy industrial-driven rock track ( produced by Anton Söder & John Avila of Oingo Boingo and mastered by Grammy-winner Gmavin Lurssen) that features sexy, fierce vocals oozing/chanting about our escape from ourselves and truth, inspired by front woman Kym Priess’ own battle between Light & Dark.
With a syncopated beat, heavy synths, anthemic choruses, + background vocals from Avila, “Fugitive” begs the questions : Are we Fugitives or Drivers on a collision course with our demons? What would happen if we allowed those demons to aid us in our path to happiness?
After all, “in the Forest, no one hears your screams,” except you.
Here's the campy animated video by New Yorker magazine videographer Patricia Luna, showing The Driver running away from The Influencer, yellow sponges and other demons in the forest/desert.

In the immersive debut of this project , audience members were led on a journey throughout a fabulous set and for this song , they were instructed to pluck leaves from the red trees and write their demons on them to confront on the trail ahead. It was a living album experience! Expect more Of that down the red road !
Think Peaches, Karen O meets Rocky Horror but you can’t put this brash baby in a box.
