Sunny War “Lucid Lucy” Hen House Studios

Music Video
“I wrote the lyrics for Lucid Lucy about two years ago. But I have been a big fan of sleeping most of my life. Lucid Lucy is a tribute to the wonderful limitless world we all have access to. Lucy is exhausted and tired of her dull life. She has a better time asleep than awake. She has mastered lucid dreaming and has beautiful adventures every night when she goes to bed. My friend Niall Taro Ferguson plays cello on the song and it’s quite dreamy.” -Sunny War

B. Wurtz “Some Songs” Hen House Studios

Each track on B. Wurtz’s album Some Songs is accompanied with a music video by Randi Malkin Steinberger. “Matching the sophisticated simplicity of B. Wurtz’s music was the beauty and challenge of making a visual companion to Some Songs. Images gathered from my own films and found footage, as well as from short videos shot by B. on his iPod Touch under my direction, are manipulated and strung together in a layered collage of visual sentiments – mostly done while under quarantine. My studio is in the same building as The Hen House where B. and the band recorded. My husband Harlan produced the project and so I had the luxury of witnessing the album as it evolved. Images swam through my head throughout the process, leading to discussions about me creating videos. I went on to actualize 14 videos that ultimately became the video accompaniment for B.’s magical songs… What an honor it was for me to take on that challenge of making a visual companion to his music.”

Particle Kid “Music” Hen House Studios

Music Video
“This song was inspired by a spontaneous conversation I had in 2015 with Paul Simon about folk music and then later that night I was randomly flipping through channels in my hotel room and stumbled upon a PBS documentary called “CHILDREN OF ISIS”. I was inspired by the conversation with Paul and shaken to the core by the film. Sleep was futile, so I instead stayed up all night writing “Music”. Its basically a cathartic, idealistic dream vision… my reactionary fantasy message to the children of ISIS. I wish I could translate it to Arabic. The whole idea is probably naive and useless, but it at least makes for a pretty song with a positive message. I hope it bring some joy. Who knows, maybe it can change a mind or two…I have seen music do that.” -Micah Nelson

Sunny War “If It Wasn’t Broken” Hen House Studios

Music Video
“I wrote ‘If It Wasn’t Broken’ at the end of a rough relationship,” War writes . “The chord progression is soothing to me, and I especially like Nikita Sorokin’s violin part. If you listen carefully you can hear the surdo drum imitate a beating heart throughout the track. This was the producer Harlan [Steinberger]’s idea. I hope the pulse of this song can comfort and resonate with other broken-hearted people.” -Sunny War

Ellyn Maybe “City Streets” Hen House Studios

Music Video
I heard half of the long, quietly mesmerizing “City Streets” on the radio—what was this? A woman with a poem, with music and a sung chorus not behind her but circling her, and the poem neither exactly recited nor sung, but spoken with such a lilt, in a voice so full of miserabilist pride—at forty, a woman is still getting high-school insults tossed at her (“Hey Mars girl,” a man shouts on the street, “get off the Earth”)—that it’s music in and of itself. – Greil Marcus, Believer Magazine

Holi-days

Documentary Film
Inspired by the quote from St. Francis of Assisi, “you are what you are seeking”, Randi Malkin Steinberger set out to document her observations and those of the contemporary traveller. Shot entirely in the three mythic cities of Jerusalem, Florence and Las Vegas, tourists, guides and experts reveal a subtle contradiction between the modern pilgrims’ anticipated expectations and their actual experiences. Holi-days suggests that the transformation we seek can be as profound as a religious epiphany, as superficial as a successful shopping spree, or as life-changing as winning the jackpot.
