Willis Earl Beal – “I AM.” Video
Earlier this year, the iconoclastic Chicago singer-songwriter Willis Earl Beal left XL, his label, and threw himself into the chaotic, uncertain world of self-released records to get his Experiments In Time album out into the world. Valerian Zamel directed a video for Beal’s song “I AM.,” and it’s all smeary point-of-view shots, filmed from the perspective of a lonely figure wandering through a city at night and almost never interacting with everyone. It’s an ominous piece of work, and you can watch it below.
The self-released Experiments In Time is out now.
