"Clip Your Wings" music video now online

As some of you know, I like making music. Well, as it turns out, my friend Andriy likes making videos. At some point, we figured out that a lot of people are kind of into something called "music videos," so we decided to make our own. How logical!

Make sure to check it out in HD:



Andriy Semenyuk filmed and edited the video in Bellingham this autumn. He is originally from Ukraine, but he came to the states to study. I met him in one of my journalism classes last year. We became fast friends and started working on a few visual projects, including this one. If you get a chance, check out his blog.

The song is the fourth track on my album, Mel's Hole. I wrote and recorded all of the songs for the album on Iron Street in Bellingham over the course of about a year. You can download the whole thing for free on my website.

This song is actually one I started writing several years ago but never finished. I went back to it last spring and reworked it for this album. Enjoy!
