Elvis Presley – Love me Tender (Viva Elvis)


Have you noticed all the I love you graffiti all over the place? What if it was more than just graffiti?

That’s the premise of this music video for Elvis Presley’s Love Me Tender. It’s the second single from the 2010 album, Viva Elvis.

Yes. THAT Elvis Presley. It’s not everyday that one gets picked to direct a music video for the King. It gets even better when you get to work with awesome people in two cities plus pickups at Graceland.

Switchboard Sessions: Get Dancey

label-1.jpg

We plundered through the fuzzy memories of last year’s secret basement parties to compile this session. As in “that song that played while we did shots with Jeremy and Chloe Sevigny,” and “that Halloween party where Lindsay told you to put on that wig and be Steve from Hot Hot Heat?” That sort of thing.

Then we mixed it all live (badly) while David Bowie and Peter Murphy had a knife fight over the last sip of Pernod at a dance party on the roof of a brothel in the worst slum in Oslo in 1991.
