The Scott Pryor Band Releases New Single “Save Me” — A Powerful Plea from the Edge
ATLANTA, GA — 10/7/2025 — The Scott Pryor Band has released their haunting new single, “Save Me,” now available on all major streaming platforms.
“Save Me” is a heart-cry from the edge—an honest, vulnerable plea for hope in the midst of despair. Caught in the cycle of grief and isolation, the song wrestles with loss, loneliness, and the search for someone to hold on to. With soaring emotion and haunting lyrics, it’s a surrender to love, a reach toward the light, and a desperate prayer for rescue. Because sometimes, the bravest thing we can do is ask to be saved.
Written and performed by Scott Pryor, a U.S. Marine Veteran whose music fuses grit with grace, “Save Me” captures the raw emotion of a man who’s lived through pain and turned it into purpose. Following the loss of his son Elijah, Pryor’s songwriting has become a fearless exploration of heartbreak, healing, and the redemptive power of hope.
“This song is for anyone who’s ever stood in the dark and reached for a reason to keep fighting,” says Pryor. “It’s about surrender and strength, sometimes the most courageous thing we can do is admit we need saving.”
“Save Me” delivers cinematic rock energy paired with soul-stirring vulnerability. The single follows the band’s critically acclaimed debut album, Wide Awake, continuing their rise as one of rock’s most emotionally authentic new acts.
“Save Me” is available now on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and YouTube.
