Photo Finish Records’ breakout duo LAKEVIEW are throwing one back to a lost love in their brand-new song, “Message in a Bottle” – available today (1/29) across all streaming platforms and digital retailers.

Written by LAKEVIEW’s Jesse Denaro and Luke Healy alongside Robyn Collins with production by the duo and Jonathan Roach, the lonesome ballad shows a more tender side of the pair— drinking away heartache, sending a few last resort texts, and pouring their hope into a bottle of liquor.

“‘Message in a Bottle’ is the first true ballad that we’ve released, and we’re extremely excited for people to hear this side of LAKEVIEW,” explains Denaro. “The story line is something almost everyone can relate to in one way or another – dealing with heartbreak, and as the whiskey begins to flow, so do those memories of a past love.”

“We’ve always said that our main goal is to write music that everyone can connect with,” Healy continues. “I feel like we really were able to do that when we wrote this song, and we couldn’t be prouder of it.”

Named one of Sounds Like Nashville’s Artists to Watch for 2021 for their “sleek Nashville-rock sound, expertly crafted country hooks and a splash of pop-punk attitude,” this is just the beginning of what’s to come from LAKEVIEW this year.

ABOUT LAKEVIEW
LAKEVIEW is an emerging Country duo built on the musical brotherhood of Jesse Denaro and Luke Healy. Signed to Photo Finish Records and making a splash with their catchy tracks, “Poor Me,” “Eyes Closed,” “Rain Down,” “She Drove Me To The Bar,” “In Case You Forgot (My Hometown),” and now “Message in a Bottle,” the duo combine proud Country soul, a little Rock & Roll scope, and subtle Pop ambition to create one singular style – translating to a cutting-edge Country sound with resonating, story-based lyrics. Natives of New York (Denaro) and Pennsylvania (Healy), LAKEVIEW formed from a songwriting partnership in Pittsburgh and brought their fresh sound to Nashville in 2019, where they’ve quickly established themselves on the scene.
