“Are We Good” Eleanor Friedberger

Eleanor Friedberger current release Rebound, is now available via Frenchkiss Records. The singer/songwriter, will also be hitting the road this month for a nationwide tour in support of the album. Along, with all the news she recently released a video for “Are We Good?”

Director Gil Kenan on the video:

“ARE WE GOOD? got me hooked the first time I heard Eleanor perform it – a fragment made up of fragments. The imagery in the video is picking up on that theme, the arpeggiating rhythm, and giving shape to it on screen. The process of creating the video was nearly stream of consciousness. My wife Eliza and I sat down at her studio with a roll of green paper and cut out shapes. I animated some of them, made some props, and Eliza created a dress (or 2/3 of one) for Eleanor to wear. There’s a pretty version of the video that is all green-screen, without the chromakey, but it’s too risky to release it… someone could go rogue and composite wacky animal bloopers all over Eleanor.”
