Ahead of the release of her new album Trash Mountain on Friday (April 4), Burlington-based singer-songwriter Lily Seabird has unveiled one more preview, ‘Arrow’. The track, which is accompanied by a Noah Lenker-directed music video, is tangled yet entrancing in its romantic conviction. “There exists this fine line on either side of it pain and beauty,” she sings, invoking Leonard Cohen. “I don’t want anyone else/ Please stay in my heart just like an arrow.” Check it out below.
“This is one of my only love songs,” Seabird said of the new song. “It’s been really fun to play this one in the band and I like how it sounds on the recording, but I also really love to play this song on an acoustic guitar.”
“The whole concept for this music video was hatched from the brain of my pal Noah Lenker, who also directed and edited it!” she added. “He called me up and when he first told me the concept I thought that it was awesome but definitely ambitious—I just put my faith in him and the magic of the day and we captured it all in a late February afternoon. The video features some puppets my friend Dre let us borrow. The ‘puppet world’ takes place in my apartment, and the ‘fantasy world’ is just an hour away in Vermont from where I live.”
