Following the acclaim of her work with Bloodslide, AJ Lambert has been preparing for the release of her album, Manhattan Beach, Swept By Ocean Breezes coming out on February 11th, 2022. After the elegance of her version of the classic I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good), Lambert verifies her adjustability with a cover of a contemporary song, Mr Twin Sister's Kimmi in A Rice Field, showing similar artistic qualities to those of her mother Nancy Sinatra and grandfather Frank Sinatra.
AJ came upon Mr Twin Sister for the first time in 2018 in a studio where the band were recording and she was picking up a hard drive of her album Careful You.
Lambert explains why she decided to cover this song: “I have been a fan of these folks for many years and this song is one of the most beautiful I've ever heard, with such an incredible story. The video was animated by Actuality Films and I also used some footage by Len Lye, the great British animator, as a layer to complement their beautiful hand drawn art. They really brought the characters of Kimmi and her sister to life.”
The video was directed by Lambert and animated by Robert Capria and Actuality Films.
