SAIDAH BABA TALIBAH - PLACE CALLED GRACE VIDEO (PHONE DEMOS)



” The Phone Demos were a beautiful accident. Donna Grantis (my guitarist) and I were trying to remember our ideas so decided to record them on a cellphone voice notes, and when we listened back and shared them with other people, they caught the essence of the raw emotion that we were trying to capture in the songs. The beauty of the video is that it captures the raw simplicity of the song and brings the feeling of era that the lo-fi sound capture from a cellphone.”
