#FreshFind: Just a Spoonful of joy as we talk with David Rosales
NASHVILLE, TN (April 22, 2022) — Join your favorite not-so-average single-use plastic utensil, Spoon, on a heartfelt adventure through an urban wilderness to find a new home in Americana artist David Rosales’ visually stunning music video for “Spoonful.” The latest single marks the second offering from the Los Angeles-native’s forthcoming 12-track sophomore LP, REVIVE (due July 22).
Complete with a cast of zany characters and imaginative landscapes, “Spoonful” weaves an environmentally conscious message into a riveting story that is sure to charm audiences both young and old. Hitting with a dynamic backing of brassy horns, “Spoonful” opens up the sonic palette of REVIVE even wider than the album's lead single “Turn It Around,” giving the listener a bona fide sense of the lush sound to come.
Americana Highways unveiled “Spoonful” describing that it “chronicles the journey of hope… a spoonful of love. Such a lovely metaphor for life… it’s all about love.”
“When you dig down to its roots, ‘Spoonful’ is about nurturing something you love,” explains Rosales. “Helping it to be as strong, healthy and happy as it can possibly be.”
The “Spoonful” music video was produced over the course of one year by Zach Zombek — a frequent creative collaborator with Rosales and practical effects magician — who skillfully utilizes stop motion animation, kinetic puppetry, live action dance choreography, and much more for a truly ambitious handcrafted mixed media showpiece.
Rooted in Americana and bathing in West Coast sunshine, David Rosales aims to provide a light at the end of the pandemic tunnel with his long-awaited album, REVIVE. “Strange times need good vibes,” says Rosales. “I'm ready to give the world a much needed dose of positivity.”
With REVIVE's summer release on the horizon, David Rosales & His Band of Scoundrels are set to hit the road this summer, offering an uplifting and spirited live performance, that pairs well with contemporaries they have shared the stage with such as Ben Harper, Brandi Carlile, Matt Costa, The White Buffalo, Donavon Frankenreiter, Pokey LaFarge and Steep Canyon Rangers.
