Gigi Gold releases new music video for ‘Stare Up At The Sky’

GIGI GOLD has released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Stare Up At The Sky, is taken from the alternative folk rock artist’s debut EP, Souvenirs, which was released back in June, via Marshall Records.

Speaking about the song, and its accompanying new music video, the artist says, Stare Up At The Sky came from a voice note clip from my collaborator, Tommy. He sent me a little recording of him playing a short version of the verse and chorus. I was sitting at my desk when I glanced up at my black & gold sparkly Duesenberg guitar and out came the opening line. The guitars already had this sort of cowboy/western vibe, so it was easy to tell the story with that kind of imagery.

Like everything I write, the subjects are incredibly personal, even if they’re cloaked and coded. This song is about knowing when to let go of what’s haunting you and recognising that closure might never really come, so you must find it within yourself instead of searching for it externally.

The video was shot on a friend’s farm in West Virginia. This place is so special to me, and what better place for a melancholy cowboy music video to be set than a real working cattle farm? The sun set perfectly behind the treeline, creating this Wizard of Oz-like Glinda pink light effect, adding to the magic.”
