video premiere: houston’s big band soul collective the suffers celebrate the purity of love in playful new visual ‘peanuts’

Big bang soul collective The Suffers celebrates that early playful energy and silly moments you have while falling in love with your spouse. You know, the honeymoon haze when the way the flip your pancakes is comparable to the way they make your stomach flip. Where the little things are worth all the gold in the world. “’Peanuts’ is about remembering why you fell in love with your spouse. Maybe it was the way they made your food, or the way they complimented you, even when you felt like you weren’t worthy of the praise,” the band tells AFROPUNK.
