We wanted to capture the “peace, love and tolerance” that we’ve developed within the band over the last years together, as opposed to a more literal interpretation of the song’s message.
A week before we were scheduled to leave on our trip, up the coast of California from Los Angeles to film, we were invited to a bash at the Beverly Hills Hotel in honor of Nelson Mandela Day.
As we were leaving, a lady came up to us, stating that her and her husband HAD JUST BEEN IN South Africa filming a movie and HAD became fans of our music.
They turned out to be Clint and Dina Eastwood and offered for us to come stay at their hotel and use the city of Carmel as the backdrop to the video.
We couldn’t have wished for a better ‘set’. The variety of scenery and helpful locals that the quaint town provided, made for an amazing long weekend.
Everything fell into place with almost Divine precision, which proves that when music is made honestly, people truly connect to it regardless of situation, location or background.
When we stopped off at various spots, we would either play along to a playback system or just jam out acoustically. Every time, locals and tourists alike would dance along or send their kids to come interact with us… The spirit of the song was, as it always seems to be, definitely present!
We hope this video gives a brief insight into our lives and our journey thus far.
