Anytime is a good time to release a Six Organs of Admittance video, album release cycles be damned. The residual grace and allure radiates out from the video for “Things As They Are” a song examining the life of poet Wallace Stevens. In 2017, Ben composted music for a theatrical work about Stevens’ life that debuted on stage in Cleveland.
Directed by Elisa Ambrogio, the empathetic waves generated by this song resonate throughout her keen visuals, giving a new dimension to the music of Six Organs of Admittance. Watch the video below and gaze over the newest tour date offerings from Ben Chasny, with European tour dates beginning in Portugal this February.
