The Night Shift | Sleep Token
One night shift in Boston changed everything. When an onstage accident forces Vessel, the mysterious frontman of Sleep Token, into the hands of a trauma nurse named Kennedy, their worlds collide. What began as a patient-provider bond quickly fractures into something deeper, a secret sanctuary for two souls navigating their own unseen wounds.
But distance is a cruel mistress, and as they navigate the miles between Boston and London, the shadows of fame begin to bleed into their reality. As Vessel struggles through the darkest chapter of his life-fighting depression and mourning a family death while crafting the Even in Arcadia album-he must decide if he can truly be the man Kennedy needs, or if the shroud was the only thing keeping them safe.
