The Great Book of John "Dark Star"

11 years ago
For The Great Book Of John's new video “Dark Star”, the band has decided to showcase possibly their greatest strength, their performance. Set in a music studio in New York City, The Great Book of John captures the essence of their live performances throughout the clip of “Dark Star.” Powerfully bold and incessantly simple, the video is an honest look at the band as a whole. The vocals of Shaw strike us as an individualistic approach to the utterance of words through music, and they are balanced by the sultry and confident vocal harmonies of his female confidant. The two singers cast shadows around one another throughout the clip, and the balancing act is fluid and well developed. The guitar riffs and solos echo music from the past, and “Dark Star” promotes the essence of these old-soul musicians.
