Video of the Day | Jody Glenham & the Dreamers - RSVP

So "they" say your music videos need to be three minutes or shorter. "They" say the treatment has to be a take on the tired "OMG THESE KIDS ARE HAVING FUN IN AMERICA AND FIREWORKS ARE HAPPENING AND HERE'S A PRODUCT PLACEMENT" concept. "They" mostly have shit for brains and are the kinds of people who green light movies about EDM culture and use music from 9 years ago to sell it. "They" can keep their hands away from Jody Glenham, because the smooth, desert siren has been consistently churning out singles and videos that make us miss the halcyon days of artists like the recently-returned Polly Jean Harvey being huge stars in this part of the world, rather than relegated to legacy tours and begging for sync scraps from licensing groups.

Directed by provocative film maker Megan-Magdalena, with visual assistance from Lauren D. Zbarsky and Erica Lapadat-Janzen, the song, "RSVP" (produced by stouthearted producer Jason Corbett at Jacknife Sound) is a calming afternoon listen, or, like many of Glenham's numbers, a song you might want to pitch woo to in the back of a pickup truck on a summer night that's as hot as the day, which might be why Nick Citton used one of her similar composition in his festival-touring feature, My Good Man's Gone.
