Texas country-punk ensemble Vandoliers have released ‘Your Picture’, the latest single from their upcoming album ‘Life Behind Bars’, which is due out June 27 via Break Maiden Records / Thirty Tigers. Written while bandleader Jenni Rose was away from her family on tour, the tender song is inspired by a picture of her wife and daughter she always carries with her. The accompanying music video is a sentimental balm for the yearning of being close to a loved one.
“I’ve carried the same picture of my wife and daughter with me as I’ve travelled the world over the past five years,” says bandleader Jenni Rose.
“That small photo inspired this song, first by noticing the worn edges, then by reflecting on the distance between when a photo is taken and where we are when we reach for it later. Memories have the power to heal, and nothing captures that power quite like a photograph, especially one you can hold in your hands. It transports you right back: to where you were, to who you were, to that fleeting moment you want to keep alive.”
She continues, “For me, ‘Your Picture,’ both the song and the video, is an attempt to translate a core, universal feeling: the longing for someone you love, the ache of wishing they were right there beside you.”
