"Back to Life" filmed LIVE at the Luther Burbank Center's Luther Locals show on August 1st! Major major thank you to Joseph Alexander for his incredible work filming and editing 📸 🎥 thank you so much to my incredible band for putting on one of the raddest shows in town (Kamran Imran on guitar, Spencer Metela on bass, and Jake Byrnes on drums)! And finally thank you to all of you that came to the show and sang, danced, and shared the love! "Back to Life" means the world to me, I wrote it as a way to set a goal for myself and my mental health, and to be a cheerleader for anyone that might listen and need it. You are loved and you belong. 💜✨⚡️ #backtolife #elliejames #elliejamesandtheelectricdreams #elliejamesmusic #favoritestranger #lutherlocals #mentalhealthmatters
