It started as an idea for a lyric video. And then it became much, much more.

This is the new animated music video for “This Is Not a Pipe.” And it’s kinda bananas.

It’s dropping partly in anticipation of a certain radio station’s 10th birthday on Friday.

Enjoy.

DOWNLOAD IT

You can download the song at Bandcamp; it’s part of the “Bigger” EP.
