MUMBAI: New pop rock band Hundred Handed, releases their debut song titled ‘Love Me Like The Weekend’ on iTunes and all digital platforms. Featuring lead vocalist/guitarist Jordan McGraw, drummer Drew Langan and bass guitarist Matt Black, the L.A. based band unveils a high energy song from their forthcoming debut album co-produced by Hundred Handed and Eddie Jackson; also collaborating with songwriter/producer Mike Green (Paramore, 5 Seconds of Summer) and songwriter The Golden Hippie.
‘Love Me Like The Weekend’ is an anthem for having fun and loving every day like it’s the weekend. As the lyrics state, “We Stop Watching Clocks Like It’s Saturday…Love me Like The Weekend.” Says McGraw, “We were inspired by a fresh start here with our new band, Hundred Handed. The song is about never taking yourself too seriously. Whether you’re an adult pretending to sneak out of your parents’ house to getting into trouble or a high school kid banging their head against the desk until Saturday comes. Every day should have a little bit of Saturday in it. We are here to make the weekend permanent!”
McGraw and Langan decided to form Hundred Handed after recording and touring as Stars in Stereo, a four piece active rock band. The band toured the U.S. and Canada opening for such established groups such as Bush, Halestorm, Bullet for My Valentine, The Used and Flyleaf. While McGraw and Langan were thrilled to be in this elite company, they decided that their passion was in pop music, and re-formed as Hundred Handed, along with Black.
