Watch David Kushner's 'Hero' Video

05-10-2024

(BHM) David Kushner releases the new single and music video called "Hero" via Miserable Man Music. "'Hero' is the story of acceptance towards the pain of your inner child," shares Kushner. The song is a poignant reflection on human relationships, exploring the personal narrative of overcoming relationship turmoil.

The track captures the raw emotion and universal truth that relationships evolve, leaving tales of heroes and villains from different perspectives. Promising to resonate with those who've witnessed the transformation of bonds, "Hero" turns personal adversity into a universally relatable anthem.

The single is complemented by a new music video in Kushner's signature cinematic style. The video expands on the lyrical narrative as it depicts Kushner interacting with childhood versions of himself and reliving childhood trauma. In the video, Kushner seems to achieve a sense of reckoning with the scars that have shaped him by interfacing with the past. The children that we once were live on inside us, but we are not defined by them. "Hero" made its global broadcast premiere on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Biggest Pop and across MTV's global network of channels, as well as on the Paramount Times Square billboards."

Kushner also today announces a headlining tour of North America. The tour starts September 9 in Portland, OR and finishes November 23 in Oakland, CA. Tickets go on sale to the public Friday, May 17. Prior to the tour Kushner will be performing at festivals including Boston Calling, Bonnaroo, and the iconic pair of Reading and Leeds Festivals in England.
