The video for "Saying Goodbye," the latest song from rising Minneapolis-based and Nairobi-born singer-songwriter J.S. Ondara, is premiering today via Brooklyn Vegan who says, "'Saying Goodbye' has an old soul and it sounds like it could've been written half a century ago, but it also sounds bright, fresh, and modern. And Ondara's soaring, angelic voice really puts it over the top." Watch/share the video here HERE.
The song is off Ondara's forthcoming debut LP, Tales of America, out February 15 on Verve Forecast. The completely acoustic album was produced by Grammy-nominated Mike Viola (Ryan Adams, Jenny Lewis) and was recorded at Boulevard Recording and East West Studios in Los Angeles. All lyrics written by Ondara and featuring collaborations with Andrew Bird, Taylor and Griffin Goldsmith of Dawes and Joey Ryan of The Milk Carton Kids.
Ondara will wrap his U.S. tour with Lindsey Buckingham this weekend. More news to come!
