Old Bowl // Sand Swimming

Isn’t purple such an underrepresented color? I mean, other than being the hue of the most famous Teletubby and having two shades in the popular mnemonic device, our short wavelength friend seems to be left out in the cold. I mean, boys can’t stand it and girls even seem to overlook it nowadays, so what’s a color to do?

In their latest video for the track “Sand Swimming”, the blazing West Texas sunshine is uniquely purple filtered, providing soothing and cool visuals which compliment the chilled-out instrumental track:

If you like the music and/or the video, you can download Old Bowl’s entire 20-track debut LP entitled eggs pear, I meant for free from their myspace page, or if you want a shorter introduction, here are two of my favorite songs, the simply sweet “Heart v. Heart” and the slightly off-kilter sing-along track “You Wish”:
