New Medicine - Take Me Away (video 2023)

Take Me Away was shot in Los Angeles directed by Dan Garland aka Danny Aces, guitar player of New Medicine. The video shows singer Jake Scherer in a dream state going in for a lobotomy to cure his depression and anxiety. Opening line “I need a break from my brain“ is really what inspired this concept. We take mental health very seriously, this is meant to shed light on the inescapable thoughts some people have and are desperate to get a break from.
