If you were lookin’ to get into a Valerie June show in Ireland last weekend, too bad.
The Memphis-born artist’s shows in Dublin, Wexford, and Cork were all sold out. So is her December 1 show in London. You’ll have to catch one of the shows in her upcoming Spain run instead.
Her successful Big Ole Worldwide Tour is in support of her latest album for Concord, Owls, Omens, and Oracles.
“Part of the reflection is realizing that we are all oracles who write the future with every choice we make throughout the day,” June says. “To write about our future, we must know something of the past. From heartbreak to poverty, oppression, injustice, failures, and pain, we all experience loss.
“‘Runnin’ and Searchin” is a song that encourages us to use our setbacks as a doorway as we steadily step into the uncertain and unknown path that lies awaiting us with every tomorrow we’re gifted.”
The video for “Runnin’ and Searchin'” was shot in Big Sur, California by Dr. Ietef Vita. Let Val help you commune with nature on this Music Video Monday.
