Rain 🌧️ (2010 Version) came out in October, and now the full-length video is up.

One take, one laptop mic

I recorded this cover of Patty Griffin's "Rain 🌧️" around 2010. Just voice and guitar, one take, into a laptop mic.

I posted it on YouTube back then, and Patty shared it. That meant the world to me, and it still does.

Rain 🌧️ on Fitler Square

The video pairs that original clip with new footage I shot a night or two before the single came out. We'd had an unusual amount of rain, and I was walking home from the gym through Fitler Square in Philadelphia.

The old streets were beautiful and a little haunting. It felt perfect for this song.
