Third Eye Blind’s Fall Plans
Dopamine was released in June, marking 3eb’s fifth full-length effort. A few weeks ago the band put out a NSFW music video for the track “Get Me Out Of Here,” which was directed by Jenkins and stars Tara Perry. The video is described as a stylist nod to “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.” Look out for a cameo appearance by Dashboard Confessional’s Chris Carrabba.
“I think the idea behind my character being haunted by flashbacks and demonized by the ghost of a girlfriend past is that relationships are kind of a nightmare,” Jenkins said. “That this coincides with the 40th anniversary of The Rocky Horror Picture Show just feels so lucky as well.”
He added, “‘I’m Going Home’ has been our walk-out music every night for years and Tim Curry is a huge influence on me as a performer.”
