New York Citys new rock and roll sensation, has completed the video for Song #3" off their debut CD, Analog Heads Gone French (Lucky Cat Records). It was after a chance meeting that drummer Aaron Conte had with cinematographer Steadi-G (aka George Bianchini) that the idea of a video was born and turned into a reality. Aaron met Steadi-G (whose credits include work on the films Wet Hot American Summer" and Kissing Jessica Stein" as well as videos by Nas, Limp Bizkit and P. Diddy) late one night at downtown Manhattan bar Lakeside Lounge. After a few drinks and games of Ms PacMan, Steadi-G began talking about Bon Jovis Dead or Alive" video and showing photos of himself with Snoop Dogg. Intrigued with one another, the two bonded over mutual friends and places, and made plans to work together. Aaron gave Steadi-G a copy of TIGER MOUNTAIN‘s Song # 3," Steadi loved the song and, with the agreement of band members Mike Jackson, Tyler Lenane (singers/guitarists), and Dean Rispler (bass player), a date was set to shoot the video. This video marks Steadi-Gs directorial debut.
Concepts for the video went back and forth over the table until finally a simple live action idea was proposed and given the green light. Newcomer Rosanna Rizzo was brought on to edit the video and give the basic live idea a new twist. Aaron secured the location, popular Brooklyn nightclub NorthSix. Steadi-G and his crew completed the entire video shoot within 12 hours. One of Steadi-Gs crewmembers included photographer Joel Stans (Spin, Vibe), who liked TIGER MOUNTAIN so much that he offered to shoot many of the images that later became the artwork and stills for Analog Heads Gone French.
Copies of the Song #3" video are available for review by request in VHS format. The video is also included as a bonus track on the Analog Heads Gone French CD. Upcoming concert appearances for TIGER MOUNTAIN include a residency every Wednesday in February at Arlene Grocery in Manhattan; shows are at 9PM, except February 26 when the show begins at 10PM.
