This is the video for Arizona from Small Fires. It was directed by William Morrison and Stephane Daniel and was filmed in Death Valley California.
About the WINTER EP:
Born two days after Christmas, Adrienne PIerce has always had a personal affinity for the holiday season. Her EP "Winter" is a musical love letter to this special time of year. Recorded primarily in a cabin on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia, this is a holiday release with both classic appeal and indie charm to spare. The four original Christmas songs are diverse in style but unified in theme and DIY approach . Adrienne is proud to have "Winter" available at Borders stores across the United States and on iTunes this November.
The EP starts with the soulful bounce of "All That We Want". Inspired by the sounds of Motown Christmas records of the 60s. The lyrics encourage listeners to "send love if that's all you have to send...spend time if that's all you have to spend". Next, the crisp strum of acoustic guitars and distant bells make "Raise Our Voices Up" and its evocative personification of inanimate Christmas objects all the more poignant.
Produced by and co-written with Sarah Mclachlan/Alanis Morissette keyboardist Vincent Jones, "Making Angels" injects a jolt of cheer with it's electro sheen and popping bass line. "Joy is Within Reach" is a more contemplative ode to remembering what is important during the oft over commercialized holiday season. "No need to deck the halls, forget the malls, let's go carolling," it urges against a backdrop of lush harmonies and instrumentation.
Pierce also has reverence for the ghost of Christmas past as evidenced by the two covers present. First is her dreamy interpretation of Vince Guaraldi's Peanuts staple, "Christmas Time is Here". In the singer's capable hands, the classic "Put a Little Love In Your Heart" becomes a rootsy sing along complete with accordion and glockenspiel.
Adrienne has released two well received full length albums and her songs have been featured on many major television shows such Grey's Anatomy, the Hills, Army Wives, Veronica Mars, Dirt and more. With the November release of "Winter" Adrienne Pierce is poised to expand her fanbase even further.
