Official Music Video: ‘Sign Of The Times’ by Robin Phillips

Here is the official music video to accompany 'Sign Of The Times', the latest original single from UK singer pianist and songwriter, Robin Phillips. This single is from Robin’s upcoming all-originals album. The song is inspired by Clarksdale, Mississippi, the birth place of the blues, but partially reimagined as an ageing lady. In many places, old buildings are torn down to make place for newer replacements, but in Clarksdale the history of the city is on show through the many remnants of the past that remain. In this reimagining of the city as an ageing lady, the song talks about how some try to cover up the signs of their age, but instead we should appreciate and celebrate the experience that is shown in these lines and scars, as they do in many cultures around the world. The song also considers how Clarksdale's legacy, rather than being written down, or shown off in fancy buildings, flows around the world, through the air, in its music, the Blues. This video features three different elements: 1) In verse 1, Robin’s long-term friend, poet, and playwright Jehane Markham is featured. She performs the role of the personified Clarksdale MS. Her character, rather than keep fighting the signs of aging, chooses to see the wisdom and experience in her lines, and we’re reminded that in a world of fake online praise, and as you get older, the best spotlight you need is the sunlight on your face when you step outside. Even as the sun sets, the moon can still light up your eyes. Actor Petra Markham, Jehane’s sister, also appears as Jehane’s double. 2) Verse 2 features the city of Clarksdale MS, demonstrating how its history is visible throughout the city, but that the musical heritage of the city (the birthplace of The Blues), still flows through the dedicated blues musicians who live there, many of whom have deep personal connections to the city’s musical historical connections. Blues musicians in the video include: Lucious Spiller Sharo Perry Bill ‘Howl-n-Madd’ Perry Watermelon Slim Robert Kimbrough Sr. If you recognise any of the other musicians captured here please let us know! Musicians were captured in venues including Red’s Juke Joint, Morgan Freeman and Bill Luckett’s Ground Zero Blues Club, and Watermelon Slim’s Bluesberry Cafe, all in Clarksdale. 3) Studio footage appears throughout the video. 'Sign Of The Times' was recorded at repmusic studio, near Cambridge, in the UK, with the brass section recorded at Marigny Studios in New Orleans. The recording features some of New Orleans' finest brass players, including one of the city's music legends, Leroy Jones.
