Julie Feeney releases new video
In "Impossibly Beautiful," fashionable and masterful singer/ composer/ orchestrator Julie Feeney has created a dynamic music video that brilliantly captures the simple beauty of the Irish star's song itself. After a spellbinding a cappella intro, represented by nine different views of her mouth, the "charming, urbane and dreamy" (NYT) Feeney goes on to don a variety of stunning headpieces courtesy of celebrated U.K. designer Piers Atkinson, creating a fantasy-like atmosphere that matches the eloquent, string, woodwind and brass-based orchestration of the song itself. Watch the "Impossibly Beautiful" music video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OI1TGrkNUmg Feeney's representation of different characters and moods in the video – accented by exquisitely-arranged makeup, hair and lighting - should come as no surprise to anyone familiar with her music, a genre-defying bouquet of clarinets, flutes, oboes, bassoons, trombones, French horns, trumpets, strings, sticks, harp and percussion from the Irish Chamber Orchestra, all composed and conducted by Feeney herself. Hailed by The Washington Post as "The Emerald Isle's Original," Feeney will release 'pages,' on May 31 via her own label, mittens. Her music has been widely broadcast on TV and radio in Ireland, where she has already won the Choice Music Prize for 'Irish Album of the Year' (the equivalent of the Mercury Music Prize) and The Sunday Tribune said she “towers over her contemporaries.” Watch a stunning live version of “Impossibly Beautiful” here: http://youtu.be/kjTiGODOKos Julie Feeney On The Web: http://www.juliefeeney.com http://www.facebook.com/pages/Julie-Feeney-page/283249963860 http://twitter.com/julie_feeney
