Holler UK interview and premieres “Kill It With Kindness” video
Hey all,
I spoke with Holler in the UK about the making of my new album Nothing Pressing. They have also premiered the brand new music video for “Kill It With Kindness”.
I thought something like those old Laserium shows that were popular in the 70s would be a cool video idea for the song. I brought the idea to Brittany Brooks, she ran with it and incorporated the band and I into the laser show she created. I really dig what Brittany came up with. They would say, “Laserium IS music for your eyes. The song, like a lot of our recordings, we recorded pretty much live in the studio. It has a great rock ‘n’ roll energy that’s to the point. Lyrically, it’s a bit about the power of the mind.

If you’ve been following me on Instagram or Facebook, you may have noticed a couple posts of me talking about records I was listening to during the creation of my new album. I’ve also made a cool playlist of tunes from these different records, including Nick Lowe, Lucinda Williams, Ann Peebles, Blue Rodeo, Bob Dylan, and many more.

Not sure if you caught it but I was on Zoomer Radio here in Toronto, chatting with Lily Frost about our album release show for Nothing Pressing. The show is happening Thursday March 31st at Paradise on Bloor, presented by Hugh’s Room. Do you have tickets yet? We’d love to see you there.
