Eleanor Friedberger has shared a new music video for her track ‘Never Is A Long Time’.
Taken from her album ‘New View’, the clip is made up of old archive footage from SXSW, with appearances from Jeff Tweedy, Wesley Willis, the Jayhawks, Old 97s, Jon Langford, Beatle Bob, and MTV VJ Tabitha Soren.
“When I was a student at the University of Texas, South by Southwest meant seeing five shows a day instead of five shows a week,” Friedberger explains. “There was no line to see Iggy Pop perform on a small outdoor stage off 6th Street or watch Wayne Coyne conduct his parking lot experiment. These were very formative years for me and watching these scenes, shot in 1996, is a good reminder that I still aspire to make music for my 19-year-old self, not music entirely dictated by computers and commercial interests.
