Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real are stoking excitement for their new record Turn Off The News (Build A Garden) - out June 14 - by sharing the music video for their track "Bad Case."
The video was shot at Willie Nelson's Luck Ranch, and co-directed by Alan Bibby and (another second-generation rocker) Adria Petty. Looking at the video's Western, Traveling Wilburys aesthetic, you can tell there's some homage being paid to the musicians that paved the way.
“Lukas and Promise of the Real are amazing musicians and human beings, so it was a huge honor to work on this collaboration shoulder to shoulder,” Petty said of the video. “And it was a dream come true getting to direct again with Alan Bibby (we co-directed ‘Princess Of China’ for Coldplay and Rihanna previously) as he is one of my dearest friends and co-creators. We were both raised on Willie Nelson and Outlaw country, so shooting at such an amazing place with such special energy as Luck Ranch was incredibly inspiring. The video is a combination of genres we love – the color reversal look of Sergio Leone’s classic westerns, Easy Rider, and the experimental nature of 60s psychedelic films and rock imagery.”
