ANOHNI and the Johnsons Share Video for New Single ‘Why Am I Alive Now?’

    ANOHNI and Johnson have shared a new single, ‘Why Am I Alive Now?’, alongside an accompanying video. It’s set to appear on the forthcoming album My Back Was A Bridge For You to Cross – out this Friday, July 7 – alongside the previously released cuts ‘Sliver of Ice’ and ‘It Must Be Change’. Check out the clip, directed by Euphoria‘s Hunter Schafer, below.

    “I started listening to Anohni in high school, so it’s a huge honor to help her build a visual world for WAIAN,” Schafer commented in a press release. “This music video was an honest attempt to answer the question that WAIAN begs, Why Am I Alive Now? I wanted to focus on the idea of finding sisterhood in a world that does nothing to help – I hope the direction, choreography, and tone conveys a small piece of that journey.”
