Nahko has released the video for his latest single, Be Here Now, following up a lyric clip posted last month.
The song is lifted from the Medicine for the People frontman's debut solo LP, 'My Name is Bear', which arrived in October.
Discussing how they came by the footage that features in it, he said:
“We put the word out to our community that we were looking for an old upright piano that we could place outside for a base shot on this shoot. What we got was even cooler! Through the grapevine connections from some sisters in the medicine tribe, we found a fellow named Coda. He had this piano he had designed and built from scratch. Each key lights up a different string of LED lights and there are several settings for different displays. Coda pulled up to our location on Grizzly Peak in Berkeley on the side of the lookout road. We unloaded the piano and built it right there! It was pretty amazing, talk about community powered movements.
Some of my favourite music videos catalog a journey into the life and times of an artist. It's a window into their world that you don't always get to see. I find them to be gems. We have a lot of those moments on the road and being able to capture them in a genuine light is the trick.”
