The band\u2019s vocalist <strong>Skye Sweetnam<\/strong> once again took up the task of directly the clip, which is available below. The song came to be on an upright piano gifted to <strong>Sweetnam<\/strong> by the band\u2019s guitarist <strong>Matt Drake<\/strong>. <strong>Sweetnam<\/strong> elaborated on that:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cWe didn\u2019t have much money at the time. I started sitting at this piano every day, relearning skills from lessons I\u2019d taken 20 years ago. It was slow, frustrating work. Then \u2018<strong>Stronger Now<\/strong>\u2019 happened. I finally felt ready to step into my own power again. The crescendo hits like hope itself; it\u2019s about standing tall even when you\u2019ve been knocked down.<\/p>\n<p>Playing that piano pulled me back to my childhood. It reignited my connection to music and creativity. In moments of anxiety and depression, this song became a reminder that hope can survive and even grow in the darkest times.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A music video for \u201cStronger Now\u201d from Sumo Cyco\u2018s newly released album \u201cNEON VOID\u201d has made its way&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":144794,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[264],"tags":[18,117,19,17,337,85519],"class_list":{"0":"post-144793","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-eire","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-ie","11":"tag-ireland","12":"tag-music","13":"tag-sumo-cyco"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/115435446224224852","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/144793","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=144793"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/144793\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/144794"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=144793"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=144793"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=144793"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
