“My Very Best” explores the feelings of self-doubt and those times in a relationship that no matter what you do, it’s just never enough. “We wanted to write something that could encapsulate the heavy heartedness and cruelty of feeling like you can’t emotionally provide a relationship with what it needs to survive,” says lead singer, Craig Fitzgerald.
In addition, The Academic is embarking on a US Headlining tour in April of 2023 following the release of Sitting Pretty. Known for their electric shows, The Sitting Pretty Tour will not be one to miss as their new album of anthems to slot into their hit-filled setlist will thrill audiences nationwide.
