It’s like a summer day in the middle of winter — a pleasant surprise." - Glide "It’s a sweetly melodic indie-folk song with morbid roots from a ‘feel-good-even-if-you-feel-bad’ sort of songwriter." - Backseat Mafia Today, indie-folk singer-songwriter Cooper Kenward announces his forthcoming self-titled debut LP, due August 22 via Dogwood Dog Records. To celebrate and kick off the album cycle, he also shares a brand new single entitled "Make Me Blue," which comes with an accompanying music video. On this track, Kenward (guitar/vox) collaborated with Andrew Maguire (drums), Jason Abraham Roberts (additional guitar), and Robert Shelton (Moog bass). Speaking on his new track and its video, Kenward wrote: "I made the 'Make Me Blue' music video as an experiment in self-acceptance. Some of my inspirations were the unique warm humanity captured in the films of Les Blank and the surreal comedy that Leos Carax creates. We shot on 16mm to evoke a kind of lost in time feeling and cast friends to keep everything loose and carefree. Sometimes I can get in my head about the act of performance and this video was me telling myself to snap out of it and have a good time." Earlier this year, Kenward shared a track entitled "In Due Time," also taken off his forthcoming LP. Cooper Kenward - "Make Me Blue" [OFFICIAL VIDEO] COOPER KENWARD LINKS  Bandcamp | Instagram
