Western Scene video

The latest single from L.A. indie duo Western Scene is about perception. Because no matter how hard you try, sometimes you “See What You Want To.” The song, self-produced by Western Scene main man Tom Pritchard in his studio in Beachwood Canyon, shifts from the glossier pop-rock on their 2013 EP to some agile retro-soul. And the video is an eye-opener too — it’s the work of Emily Wilder, frontwoman of L.A. rockers Wet & Reckless. The stop-motion affair, which includes some nifty handmade wooden characters, was made entirely on an iPhone 6, with Wilder riffing on the themes in the song. Postscript: During the making the video, Pritchard and Wilder began writing songs together, and some will appear on Western Scene’s forthcoming EP.
