“Voices in the Field” Lyric Video




We have a second song from the new album we want to share with you today called “Voices in the Field.” Jonny Sanders made a cool postcard-themed lyric video to go with it which you can watch above. Postcards are one of the themes behind the artwork of the new album. We worked together with Ryan Trayte of Saywells Design to come up with a Calexico design inspired by old postcards that we could share with you. We hope this will inspire the act of more handwritten notes. These postcards are available, along with other new merchandise items here.
