May Ling, Lion Tamer
UPDATE: No video for you! See comments section. You know what feature I’ve missed most on LocalCut the last, oh, six weeks since things haven’t been working properly? Random Video Tuesday. In honor of my favorite neglected weekly online column—and the fact that most of the LC kinks have been fixed—I’d like to share a little something with you: the (sorta) new video for May Ling’s bouncy “New Year,” which is way more AWESOME than it is random.
There’s really no use in describing this, other than saying “New Year” is over three minutes of singer Alberta Poon (you might know her from Wet Confetti and Reporter) dancing with a lion dance master from the Portland Lee’s Association Lion Dance Team. It’s colorful, it’s bright, and it’s got soul. The video premiered (I think) at the LABELMATES night at Holocene at the end of October, and now it’s available online:
NEW YEAR: May Ling from TheWhitemanBrothers on Vimeo.

says:Hey! Sean Whiteman here. I directed the video. The link was only supposed to go out to a few friends. It made it’s way up here before it was supposed to premiere-legit (when May Ling’s 2nd album hits). I had to snatch it back for now. It’ll show in a month or two though. Thanks for the interest.
