Today, Nathaniel Rateliff and his longtime friend Gregory Alan Isakov have shared new music video for their duet, “Flowers,” which was directed by Rateliff’s partner Taylor McFadden. The song lands in advance of Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats’ landmark headline show at Madison Square Garden on March 27, as part of their milestone first-ever arena tour, with Isakov as the opening act.
While talking about the music video, Rateliff said: “The concept for the ‘Flowers’ video came from my partner Taylor McFadden’s vision. She had heard the song in various forms over the years and was excited that Gregory and I were finally putting it out. We were in Santa Fe New Mexico listening to mixes and decided it would be a fun collaboration to create visuals for this song together.”
The artist adds: “She brought in her producing partner Lavinia Jones Wright and their company I Play Different Productions to execute the idea. It was so inspirational to watch her work and create something beautiful together. Gregory is a great friend. The opportunity to work together, on both a song and video, was so special. On the day of the shoot there were many laughs and the room was filled with so much love.”
Isakov adds: “There is a palpable joy working alongside Nathaniel. We’ve been such great friends for so long. Taylor’s vision as a director is equally as impressive. They both have a real ease about them, which is always something you strive for as an artist.”
