We asked five musicians to drive and sing without looking at the road, and voila: the second music video for the new "Sycamore" album.

No tricks or harnesses or driving rigs; we shot it all while piloting a 1972 Pontiac LeMans through the town and outskirts of Lemont, IL. Is it a coincidence that LeMans sounds almost just like Lemont? Not sure.

The video features the lovely Karisa Bruin, as well as heroic performances by Manny Sanchez, Blake Cooper, Steve Kouba (thanks for the ride!), Devin Arkin, and Nik Krimm. It was directed by Michael Starcevich (http://www.youtube.com/user/sidewinder3000), with huge production, shooting, and editing assistance by the intrepid Nick Edelberg and also huge help from our girl Friday (through Thursday) Jamie Simkins.

You can check out the entire "Sycamore" album on iTunes or name your price to download it now at http://tonyrogers.bandcamp.com/. You can also see more of my work at http://iliketonyrogers.com/.

  • I dont understand how they havent blown up yet? They are amazing

  • I'm sorry I'm bring that guy but, the song you sang for the dog food commercial was beautiful, so I was wondering if you made a full song and if so could you please send me a link to find/get it!?

  • You the same guys who sang the dog food commercial?

  • Awesomely great, creative, wonderful! Of course I have not viewed or listened to anything involving you, Tony that is anything less than masterfully created. Much love!

  • TOP NOTCH

  • Damn those are some good looking dudes.

    

  • You guys clearly had too much fun doing this, and I'm hugely bummed I couldn't make the shoot.

  • OMG - watch where you're going!

    Lovely surprise at the end to see not a crash but something beautiful.
