Premiere: Yawn Mower with a Cover from Frank. Playing Coney Island Baby in NYC Tomorrow, 8/30.


"I Love You All"

Last week, before the CoolFamily and I headed into the Internet black hole of Mt. Rainier and Olympic National Parks, I told you about the At The Movies comp coming out this Friday via our friends at Mint 400 Records.

Today, I have the honor of sharing another track and video from that compilation with you. For their contribution, Yawn Mower covered "I Love You All" from 2014's Frank. 

On the song, the band share, "You can hear a song a million times, but once it's married to a scene in a movie it can provoke another set of emotions entirely. It defines a scene as much as any cinematic decision the director is making.

We recorded this cover with Pat Noon at Eightsixteen / Trax East. Rudy Meier played keys, Nicole Scorsone played violin, and they both sang. We all went in together for a full day of recording and walked away with what might be our favorite thing Yawn Mower ever recorded.

This is a movie we immediately connected with when we both saw it. It truly captures the dynamic of being in a band & dealing with mental health. We had been pitching the idea of doing 'I Love You All' for years, so when the label came to us with the compilation idea - it was an obvious pick."

Shot by Nick Cucci and edited by Biff Swenson, the video seems to contrast the images we project to the world with what's going on "behind the curtain" -- especially during those moments when Biff is wailing away on the drums.

Check it out below.



Yawn Mower will be at Coney Island Baby in NYC tomorrow, 8/30, when they play Ultra Major's album release along with Birthday Boy. Mint 400's At The Movies is out on 8/31.
