Raveena shares a new film titled Where The Butterflies Went. The project was was executive produced by James Beard Award-winning chef Sophia Roe in collaboration with the multidisciplinary collective Aerthship. The film is one of many eco-harmonious projects produced by Aerthship that is dedicated to the liberation of all organisms. This fall, Raveena will be joining Tinashe on her Match My Freak world tour. Launching October 18th, the pair will be making stops in Los Angeles at The Greek Theatre, Dallas, Nashville, Brooklyn, and Toronto and many more.

Shot at Callisto Farms in upstate New York, the film features performances of several tracks off Raveena’s new album Where The Butterflies Go In the Rain including “We Should Move Somewhere Beautiful,” “Baby Mama,” “Lucky,” and “Rise,” and provides greater context to the world that Raveena’s music currently lives within. A perfect blend of performance film and free-flowing conversation, Raveena and Roe delve into the central themes of Raveena’s new album—a body of work she has said, “changed my relationship to music and to the material world.” Their discussion touches on artistry, social media, generational trauma, meditation, ecology, motherhood, fear, and radical acceptance. With a newfound self-love, maturity, and comfort motivating Raveena’s artistry, she has seamlessly united her expansive songwriting with traditional Indian instruments and feel-good early 2000s pop elements —putting forth a work that’s more unabashedly herself than any that’s come before.

Raveena shares about the process of making the film, “Working with Aerthship and Sophia Roe at Callisto Farms was one of the most clarifying experiences of my life. I felt held by community and by the surrounding nature. Those three days made me feel like there was indeed a whole community that cared about real art, about art beyond the algorithm, about art that came from a soulful and earthy space. I am so grateful that an album as important to me as Where The Butterflies Go In The Rain could be surrounded by that type of nourishing experience. It felt so reflective of the love and purity of the album.”

Sophia Roe adds, “Raveena’s work continues to be medicine for a generation starving for peace and radical mindfulness. It’s not every day that you’re able to collaborate with an artist and collective that so effortlessly aligns with your life’s ethos, while also being so willing to really commit and tap into the deep well of vulnerability necessary to execute a project of this kind. Aerthship’s capacity (as a collective) to make you feel safe but strong, free and so deeply considered, gives you something you didn’t even know to look for, but so desperately need. Where the Butterflies Go in The Rain sounds like three days in whatever safe wilderness you can imagine. We really wanted to share that exploration with people—because who doesn’t need three days in a dream, ya know?”

Sophia Roe is a James Beard Award-winning chef, writer, editor, and two-time Emmy-Award-nominated TV host known for her distinct lens on honesty, diversity and inclusivity. Her innate passion for food has always been connected to an understanding—from a young age—that some people have access to nutritious foods, while others simply and problematically do not. This duality is the foundation for Sophia’s work: celebrating the beauty and art in cooking while creating resources to advance food justice, build more sustainable and equitable systems, and combat industry whitewashing.
