Detroit singer/songwriter/guitarist Anna Burch is releasing a new album, If You’re Dreaming, on April 3 via Polyvinyl. Now she has shared another song from it, “Party’s Over,” via a self-directed video that stars Burch as a jilted bride after the groom goes on the run thanks to a sea monster. Watch it below, followed by Burch’s upcoming tour dates.
Burch had this to say about “Party’s Over” and its video in a press release: “It’s kind of strange but I already started envisioning the video as we were listening to the playback during recording. I was originally picturing a runaway bride scenario, but I pivoted to runaway groom with the ‘60s sci-fi angle. The song’s lyrics are a bit voyeuristic and, with the ‘60s sounding 12-string guitar, that probably helped inspire the scenario. A lot of my close friends and family have gotten engaged or married in the last year so weddings have been on the surface of my psyche as well.”
Previously Burch and shared If You’re Dreaming‘s first single, “Not So Bad,” via a self-directed video for the track. “Not So Bad” was one of our Songs of the Week. If You’re Dreaming is Burch’s second solo album, the follow-up to 2018’s Quit the Curse (also released on Polyvinyl).
