Through their notoriously energetic live performances and uncompromising releases, the band has been able to maintain and grow an avid fanbase. Armed with the East coast DIY tenets they first picked up in the early 2000\u2019s Florida underground scene, Safety trust themselves with their work. Safety\u2019s primary songwriter is Safety. Their most trusted producer? Safety. Their manager? You guessed it. \u00a0<br><br>Their most recent release, 2015\u2019s\u00a0\u2018Congratulate Me, I\u2019ve Lost My Mind\u2019\u00a0via Community Records, was well-received by fans and critics alike, and proved to be yet another stepping stone for their brand of discordant punk. In one moment the music crescendos with the ethereally blissful harmony, and the next, it is dragged through the mud. That is the intentional dichotomy of a band with two lead singers who know how to occupy their respective milieus.<br>\u00a0<br>\u2018Greetings From The Sunshine State\u2019\u00a0will be released in March via Chicago label Jetsam-Flotsam. The album was recorded in the band\u2019s final days in NYC, and is perhaps even darker, heavier, and catchier than their past releases.<br><br>Andy Diaz, Grayum Vickers, Nick Dolan\u2014the founding members of Safety\u2014make their music for themselves, a mode of necessary expression, but they invite you to join them in the struggle that is existence and understanding through music.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>In October of 2020, Safety released a new single titled Song of the Night Gator.
