Tess Roby, has shared “Path,” along with a video for the track directed and filmed with collaborator Hugo Bernier. “Path” was written, performed and produced by Tess Roby, with additional drum programming, recording and mixing by Austin Tufts (BRAIDS). “Path” Roby’s previous single “Up 2 Me,” which she shared in March.

Tess shares: “The 16mm footage in this video was shot in 2019 before ‘Path’ was written. Hugo & I sat with that footage for a while, at times forgetting about it completely, but always coming back to its beauty and simplicity. I had the footage in the studio with me while I was writing and it ended up inspiring parts of the song. I had never worked in that way before; video footage influencing songwriting – it was an interesting process, reversing the way in which I usually work with video. So much has changed since that footage was shot. It was only natural to pair it with footage of me now, in this very moment, speaking to myself then: ‘you’re looking down, I’m reaching out, if only I could see it like you do.’”
