Eels Recruit Actor Jon Hamm for ‘Are We Alright Again’ Video

When Eels released “Are We Alright Again” in September, singer Mark Oliver Everett bka E said it was “kind of a quarantine daydream that I needed to have.”

And the band has released a new video that completely brings that idea to fruition. Directed by Greg Barnes, the one-take visual presents actor Jon Hamm getting so ost in the new single that he doesn’t even realize that his home is getting robbed.

With headphones on, he sips on his whiskey while bopping and singing along. In the background, you see burglars — played by actors Eric Edelstein, Caroline Bloom and Jude B. Lanston — grabbing everything they can, even holding comic Mike Mitchell hostage in the background.

“We could all use a little comfort from the past year. Perhaps this song can provide a little for you like it does for the guy in this video,” E said in a statement.

Eels released “Baby Let’s Make It Real” in August, and their new album, Earth to Dora, is out now.

That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
