Anna B Savage steps up with the video for her latest single ‘Baby Grand’. Directed by the artist herself along with Jem Talbot, the story is a remake of a scene from Talbot’s and Anna B Savage’s short film of the same name where reality and that which is not, get crossed between a couple’s real life and that of a movie. The track itself is taken from Savage’s forthcoming, debut album A Common Turn out January 29th on City Slang.

Touching on the video, Anna B Savage stated:

“Jem was my first love. For three years we’ve been working on a film together about our past relationship. This song is written about a night Jem and I had, just after we’d started work on the film. This night was – like much of the filmmaking process – very confusing. Taut with unexpressed emotions, vulnerability, and miscommunication.

Baby Grand (the film) and A Common Turn (album) are companion pieces: woven together in subject, inspiration and time. Jem was, for want of a better word, a muse for A Common Turn. Expressing ourselves through our different mediums (mine: music, his: film) became a way for our disciplines to talk, perhaps in place of us.”

Jem Talbot added:

“Having not spoken to me in seven years, Anna sent me a text out of the blue saying she’d had a dream about me. Perhaps by chance, or by cosmic serendipity, I’d been listening to her EP and already dreaming up a film idea the two of us could collaborate on. Three years later, she’s releasing her debut album and I’ve finished that film. In that time, both our mediums have been in a constantly shifting dialogue with each other, a dialogue that has mirrored the ebbs and flows of our connectedness in the present day.

The film is an exploration of the how and why some people just crawl into your heart and make a home there.”
