For the video for their song "Fish", Baltimore duo Wye Oak recruited a few fellow hometown artists, painter Katherine Fahey and photographer Michael O'Leary.
Katherine Fahey did the wonderful painting which graced the cover of their debut, If Children. For this video, she meticulously constructed a shadow puppet show out of her own paper cuts.
Michael O'Leary, whose photograph appears on the cover of Civilian, contributed his inventive lighting and cinematography.
Another Baltimore mainstay, Owen Lang, contributed the edit.

an original song and video. I think that bands untouched by hollywood and media tend to be the best to hear because the songs are amazing and they don't try to be like everyone else, thumbs up if you agree. :)

Hey! I liked this. Cool art. Great voice.
This video really strikes a chord that's kind of universal, because everyone hates getting swallowed by a giant fish. I know I sure do. Especially when I'm eaten by the worms AND weird fishes.
Meanwhile, for Christmastime, remember that fish make great stocking-stuffers!
