“’Hold You Down’ is a song about devotion”, says X Ambassadors lead singer Sam Harris. “Saying to that one person / those people in your life, ‘no matter what happens, I will always be there for you’.My brother and I have lived through a lot together over the last 30 years, so I dedicate this one to us”.
