OWL releases Their Music Video for “Witch’s Familiar”

OWL is graciously sharing their new music video, for their single “Witch’s Familiar”. The band is fronted by Chris Wyse, whom many will remember as the bassist for Ace Frehley and The Cult. Chris is joined by Jason Achilles Mezilis on guitar and vocals and Dan Dinsmore on drums. With “Witch’s Familiar” OWL gives the listener and viewer a darker experience that touches on Psychedelic. The music video matches the tone of the single. This one will make you pause to listen and if you are into the darker gothic type of music “Witch’s Familiar” will resonate with you. Be sure to look for their EP Things You Can’t See from your favorite vendor. Here’s OWL”s music video they are sharing with us from their YouTube channel, “Witch’s Familiar” – Richard:
