Indie rock band Nico Vega releases their EP Make It Out Alive anchored by the new song ‘I’ve Got My Soul.’ The single arrives with an official music video. In the video, lead singer Aja Volkman belts the track out defiantly over the band’s powerful horns while she fights off groping arms and faceless attackers. The message is clear: Volkman remains unbroken in the face of traumatic experiences. A fourth single will follow on January 3rd leading up to the release of a new album.

Aja says, “This video is about so many things. Hopefully something different and somewhat identifiable for each person. For me this video is about battling the shadows of life. All of the things that have happened that have played a role in creating my own behavior patterns. It’s those things you battle throughout life that you can trace back to a single event or many events. They create a ripple effect. They create our shadow. Because hurt people hurt people. But no matter what happens in this life, nothing can steal your soul.

“We wrote the song after the war broke out in Israel last year. I had a hard time understanding how to reconcile the atrocities that were taking place. And this isn’t about pointing a finger or picking sides. In the end of the day, the only thing we have is an eternal soul and it can’t be stolen or even manipulated. I’m pro-eternal light.”
