Shreveport, Louisiana’s Seratones – fronted by the gospel-trained powerhouse frontwoman A.J. Haynes. They recently wrapped up a headlining tour in the US, and before kicking off their UK/EU tour tonight they share the music video for “Over You.” Watch the music video now HERE.
AJ Haynes says of the video:
“‘Over You’ was written fresh after an acrimonious break up. Lewis Pesacov and I came up with a beat and a bass line and then I basically free-styled over the track. There was a point at which I realized-while making the song-that I truly was over the split. That I was better. I had to deal with how I was complicit in the emotional manipulations and blame game tug-of-war. I had to look at myself.
“The bathroom is one of our most intimate interior spaces because we have to be alone with ourselves, which is a really uncomfortable place to be after a breakup. We have to look in the mirror to see what we’ve done.
“The bathroom is also a place of transformation. We reflect, we recoup, we refresh, we re-learn how to come back to ourselves, to reframe our axis of pleasure. I think that self-love is about far more than baths, incense, and masturbation-however, these rituals remind us that we are worthy of pleasure and peace. Self-love is a practice of healing, of getting better.”
