Thayer Sarrano and Nate Nelson: Behind the Scenes

1 Comments 20 Nov, 2009

Wow.  Thayer Sarrano and Nate Nelson.  Wow.  Quiet, lovely, modest, good-spirited and really, really beautiful music-makers.  It was a treat to meet these guys and hear their songs in our Kitchen as leaves blew by the windows and fall began to settle onto Greensboro.  Perhaps I’m biased because some of their songs sound like early Cat Power (who is one of my all time faves) or maybe it’s because Thayer was such a good sport about leaning over the edge of our bathtub and submerging her head in the water for several takes, but it’s fair to say I’ve become a big fan overnight.   I’ve listened to both of their cd’s several times and heard “Jump In the Water” over and over again as Harvey worked his magic on their video and I’m still struck by how beautiful it is. 

Here are a few shots from their session.  After discussing our Halloween costumes, Thayer and Nate were kind enough to do an awkward prom date pose for us at the end.  Of course they’re way too cute to be awkward, but don’t tell them that.  Stay tuned for their next video.  Pretty darn sure you’re going to love it.
