States and Capitals

States & Capitals is an American rock band from Wyckoff, New Jersey, formed in 2015. The band was founded by 22-year old frontman, singer/songwriter Richie Arthur (Richard Arthur Schaafsma). After taking a year and a half hiatus from the early EP releases, the group released the single, “Drive”, on August 4, 2017. The song premiered in Spotify’s “It's ALT Good!” and “The Scene” playlists, attracting a fresh audience to the single. The song eventually led up to the release of the EP, “CREATIONS&MEMORIES” on June 15, 2018. The EP was recorded in Nashville, Tennessee with producer, Jonathan Roye (Owl City, Kelsea Ballerini, Forever The Sickest Kids). The band set out on the two-leg “CREATIONS&MEMORIES Tour”, beginning in Los Angeles, CA on March 7, 2018. The tour went all throughout the USA, including slots on Vans Warped Tour and Southwest Invasion, which ended on August 12, 2018, at House of Blues Anaheim. In December 2018 through March 2019, Arthur embarked on “The West Coast Tour” and “The East Coast Tour”, playing acoustic sets throughout California and parts of the east coast. On April 26, 2019, the band posted a series of clips on social media titled ‘5319’, leading up to the release of the single, “FEELINGS” on May 3, 2019. It is the first single off of Arthur’s self-produced debut-album, set to release July 2019.

 Struggling with Higher? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

try again 
i’m buying these pills for a friend
depression can slightly offend
so maybe i slipped some again
am i a cool kid yet?

pissed
smirk off the feelings i missed
i’m half baked and fully a quit 
but partially a lost boy admit
i’m proof a dead soul lives

hey, i called out your name
i sit in the back with one broken vein
and come back insane
oh, a faulted mistake
turned out to be a damn good charade
i’m lost and away

is it breaking me?
does it show i’m weak?
but it’s taking me higher
disturbed peacefully
no one’s making me
something’s taking me higher

awake
these mix matched intentions it gave
i’m not scared just bored washed in pain
so fucked up i’ll think i’m okay
while pushing me to my coffin

hey, i lost all my days
i’m coming to get my perfectly shamed heartbroken fame
oh, i’m gone from this home
i’m going ahead my brain feels brain dead
a sane person’s death

is it breaking me?
does it show i’m weak?
but it’s taking me higher
disturbed peacefully
no one’s making me
something’s taking me higher

high 
something’s taking me higher
so high 
something’s taking me higher

is it breaking me?
does it show i’m weak?
but it’s taking me higher
disturbed peacefully
no one’s making me
something’s taking me higher than you

higher than you
so higher than you
so higher than you
