Song of the Day: August 06, 2017 - "Gold In You" by Ashleigh Ball
Ashleigh Ball has released a video for the title track from her new solo album Gold In You.
The song and video are perfectly timed for these hazy summer days (get out to Pride today!), and of the location Ashleigh says this:
"My boyfriend and I would often boat past this spot on route to friend’s cabins and he would grimly tell me that it was the Island where his Grandfather had drowned in the 1950s when his mom was only 7 or 8. It was always this sort of mysterious place that held such a negative energy. Until one day we decided to drop anchor in the bay and swim in. It's one of the most beautiful gulf islands I've been to with sandstone cliffs and white shell beaches. We've returned time and time again with friends to camp.
I thought it would be a fitting location to shoot a video for this song because of the heavy history and darkness of the place: 'When shadows blind we just let the light in.' If you shift your perspective you can see the good in something.”
Have a beautiful Sunday!
