We are very proud to be able to finally share with you the animation and animal (well almost) filled video for Casey Shea’s “In Your Head”. Directed by Eduardo Cintron, this video is one we’ve been waiting to share with you.
The pride continues as one of our favorite music magazines in the UK has premiered the video on their site. The one and only NME Magazine! You can check that out here: Casey Shea on NME.
To buy the song or check out the album that it comes from, make your way to the Family Records store.
We are so proud to release Matt Singer‘s new album titled “The Build” on April 26th at Littlefield in Brooklyn. The album is about the climb from darkness to light, and Matt will be joined by his band which includes Jim Altieri, Misty Foster, Chris Michael and Curt Garey.
Matt will be screening his debut music video of his current single, “All This Joy“, directed by Jesse Garrison.
More than a record release, this musical variety show will have performances by three of New York City’s finest puppeteers. Melissa Creighton, Eric Wright and James Godwin (who have collectively worked with the Muppets, Basil Twist, and Dave Chapelle, on PBS, SNL and at the Metropolitan Opera House) who will share in the joy and bring visual spectacle to the night.
We hope to see you all there!
