This evening we released our new music video for a gritty, ditty called “Snake”. My blog “Wake Up, Snake Up” (2/3/21) was written just as it was taking shape, peep that for more on its origins and significance.
I’m thrilled how close we got the video & song to match up with Bob’s initial vision of a 70s haze...complete with Lava lamps, strobe lights and bad ass guitar - if only we had smellavision you’d be immersed in Nag Champa & reefer too. check it out: https://youtu.be/I10r1RM0kik
The song came together with zero resistance however the video required me to go waaaaay beyond my comfort zone to become the image Bob described to me: hair slicked back, sun glasses, “look like a snake”...it was easy enough for me to draw inspiration from when MTV & VH1 played Aerosmith, U2 & Robert Palmer’s videos & brought us images of bold front men & entourage in their glory, sensationally glamorous and Simply Irresistible, that’s what I was going for anyways, starting from ragamuffin 5-star hippie chic it’s a stretch! Truth be known, I’m not innately comfortable in front of a camera, let alone on video but I did it, I did it for the Love. For the Love of music, artistic expression & because of how strongly I believe in what we are creating & what our intentions are. It took me several takes, a lot of audacity and some Honey Badger gumption to get ‘er done & done is better than perfect so, now all that really counts is that you dig our new joint! I hope it transports you to a super dope psychedelic place where it’s everything’s alright, alright, alright.

Listener’s note - nothing sounds as good as it can off your phone. We suggest you listen to it with head phones or on your kickass speaker system, most certainly crank it up in your ride. Bob spends his precious time and attention on the sound quality & we want you to enjoy it to the Max! Let us know how you feel.
This week I’m Thankful for staying groovy making progress, for Bob and his creative vision that pushes me to new limits & for Honey Badgers - even tho they eat Snakes - Honey Badger are badass!
