Sam Cohen of Yellowbirds not only creates music that paints vibrant pictures in your mind, he also has a passion for creating the visual stimuli as well. Earlier this year when we spoke about his record The Color and the process of chasing after the magical sound that lives inside your head, we also touched on his growing love for making stop-motion animation videos -- check out the two videos he made for "The Reason" and "The Rest of My Life." It's great stuff.
Sam, along with Erez Horovitz, took a different conceptual approach for this video for "Beneath the Reach of Light." Check it out, and also if you haven't already, check out the record The Color.
