Jackson Scott is a 20-year-old musician who released his debut album Melbourne over the summer (via Fat Possum).
He released a music video for album track “Sandy” which although sounds quite innocent, actually is about the Sandy Hook elementary disaster of last year. If you listen closely to the lyrics you’ll figure it out. The video interesting see’s Scott at a party, making you feel like you’re as drunk as they are. It’s an interesting portrayal, something worth discussing.
Scott described his mindset when making the song and video in an interview with NPR. Definitely worth a read.
