Says the eclectic website's Senior Associate Editor DW Dunphy,
"POPDOSE is thrilled to be the first line when it comes to exposing
the audience to new and upcoming music. As a site which is steadfastly
genre-agnostic, having the ability to post these premieres is
important to us, and goes to the core of our mission statement as a
multimedia venue."
The music video "Secret Wings" is a video Jann and Gary's first song
collaboration together when the duo started writing songs three years
ago after Gary heard Jann perform the song "Mojo Pin" that Gary
collaborated on with the late Jeff Buckley.
Jann says that "SECRET WINGS" is about the City beating you down and
us making it through the crap that can pile up." The SECRET WINGS
video was created by DeAngela Napier and will be seen on YouTube,
VEVO, Gary & Jann's Facebook pages. The video features scenes of the
City, with motion from skateboarders, pigeons, cabs and bike riders,
trains, runners, dragon dancers, commuters and shoppers, fine art,
street art, musicians, including a scene of Jann and Gary playing in
the Rockwood Music Hall. (In fact Gary will be sitting in with Jann at
the Rockwood Stage 3 on Monday, the 21st of December at 8:30 PM. After
that date, the two will be back on the road in Germany, Washington,
DC…)
