Phenomenal Video Saturday: Wakey!Wakey! does Yeasayer

This week’s PVS was recommended to me by the incomparable Lee Levin (the one who writes for the site. THIS SITE!). It’s a very well-shot* video of KR favorites Wakey!Wakey! piling into a Brooklyn loft and covering Yeasayer’s “Ambling Alp.” The coolest thing about the video, besides the violin part that pretty much ties the song together, is probably the cavalcade of super-hip dudes and dudettes singing background vocals on the chorus. It gives off this very community-esque, beard-esque vibe that the camera captures nicely.

And the cover itself is good. Obviously. It’s two good bands crossing the beams, ‘na’mean?

* Well-shot = the camera lingers on pretty girls a lot. Cinematography!
