Jess Williamson shares a video for “Topanga Two Step,” a stand out from her  acclaimed new album, Time Ain’t Accidental, out now on Mexican Summer.

“For ‘Topanga Two Step’, we set out to make a video that captures the surreal landscape of the Texas Hill Country and feels like a daydream,” Williamson explains. “We filmed on a ranch on the Guadalupe River and inside a Stonehenge replica. Lyrically, the song comes from a moment in my life when I was trying too hard to impress someone who was really different from me, but the rejection and weirdness I felt ended up guiding me into a deeper understanding of myself. I asked my partner Samuel Walker to direct the video because he shot the incredible cover photo of my new album, Time Ain’t Accidental, and I wanted to delve further into our visual collaboration. His vision for the video centered around this energy in the lyrics of sensuality, longing, and release.” 

Williamson’s summer tour in support of Time Ain’t Accidental kicks off this week in Phoenix, NM and wraps with two nights at Joshua Trees’ Pappy & Harriet’s. Tickets are available now at jesswilliamson.com/tour. All dates below.
