A lot has happened since we've last posted here. We have begun, and will soon finish, shooting for our first music video to our title track 'Amen' off our forthcoming album. I can say, collectively, that we are shocked and awed by not only the quality, but the dedication to this project that so many have shown through donations, physical help, costume designing, hair and makeup, and providing the most beautiful, serene locations!
There are many thanks to be given and many gifts and rewards to be presented. To name a few, thank you to Jeremy Sharp for providing the shot locations. The property is tucked in the most beautiful landscape you can find in northern California. Upper Bodega county has gifted us graciously with it's moss coated, moist land just littered with ancient trees and plant life all nurtured by an ever-present micro climate.
Thank you to Rhonda and Jessica MacDavitt for the costume creation and hair and makeup magic. Like Midas touch, they took what ideas we had and sculpted them, ever so rabidly into even more than we could have ever dreamed or hoped for. Thank you for your clarity of vision, your purity of selves and your ability to improvise!
Thank you to the entire Filament Features crew!!!!! Obviously, this would not have been possible without you. It was an honor to work for you before and with you this time around. Your incredible energy and wonderful personalities made for the perfect blend of work and play! If not for you all, we would have completely imploded. Really. We are here to help you anytime you need us, never fear to ask. We have so much love for each and every one of you!!!!
Dj Turner...no words can express our thanks nor our support for you in anything and everything you do! You are a wonderful, extremely talented and beyond that, inspired individual that has nowhere to go but up and up and up!!! It was, and will always be, an honor in the highest to work/play with you. Anything you need. Ever.
Eliza Kelley, holy shit! Eliza has contributed in a way no one else could. .she fed us some of the finest food we could have ever hoped for. Her generous donations fueled us through some coooooold weather and late nights. (We stopped shooting one night at 6:30 a.m.). Thank you ENDLESSLY for the delicious FINE treats and meals!!! She has artwork headed her way around Christmas time. :)
To all our friends that came to our aid through this all, what would we ever be without you? Nothing. Thank you so much to Zach McKlusky for transporting bandmates, food, buckets, baskets and many other obtuse items! Thank you to Melissa and Mercedes Baker for saving our fucking lives by helped with makeup, setup, costume and even acting!!!! These girls are the real deal, the true artists for life, no exceptions!!!!!!
And our final thank you's go to the ENTIRE cast of the video! Shannon Lucio, Isabelle, Melinda, Anthony, Kevin, Hugh, Pedro, Franz, Zach and Melissa Baker!!!!!! You were all the most beautiful, perfect embodiment of all things dreamed for in this production and we hope to continually work with all of you!!!! More love than could possibly be conveyed is being hurled at you through this screen!!!!!!!!! (can you feel it?)
Keep an eye out for brand new shirts coming very soon!
