Last November, a pop-rock band based in Atlanta, shot the video for its new single “Julie” in the Route 66 ghost town of Ludlow, Calif., which is smack dab in the middle of the Mojave Desert.
“Julie” is available as a download on iTunes. Last November will release an EP titled “tug o’war” on Jan. 26.
According to the band’s news release, the video shoot was a spontaneous decision:
Lead singer and guitarist Luke Pilgrim edited and directed the music video for “Julie” demonstrating not only his talent in music, but his talent in production as well. While on their summer 2009 tour, the band stumbled upon the little desert town of Ludlow, CA off the Historic Route 66 where on a spur of the moment, they decided to shoot the video.
I hope the band had a bite to eat at the Ludlow Cafe. It’s a 1960s gem that’s still operating.
