Joan Shelley has shared a video for “Amberlit Morning,” her new song with Bill Callahan off her forthcoming LP The Spur. Check out the video for “Amberlit Morning,” directed by Cyrus Moussavi and Brittany Nugent, below.
Of the new song, Shelley said in a statement:
When I was a child, my father the painter would tell me the Picasso quote: “Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.” He tried to teach me to hold on to that wonder and clear vision, but holding on proved impossible.
As I wrote this song, I watched it take on this theme of beauty and impermanence. I imagined making it a duet that would feel like a conversation between two constellations. I wanted to be sung a mythical bedtime story, one that Bill Callahan might write. So I asked him to write and sing it with me.
Could we capture that stellar perspective?—seeing the world from before we learned the sense of triumph or of tragedy; before we learned what we should be proud of or what we should fear.
The Spur —the follow-up to 2019’s Like the River Loves the Sea—is due out June 24. James Elkington produced the LP, which has contributions from Meg Baird, novelist Max Porter, and Shelley’s husband Nathan Salsburg. LP Last month, Shelley shared the record’s title song.
