Eels have released a new video for ‘Are We Alright Again’ to coincide with the release of latest album ‘Earth To Dora’, out now via E Works. The Greg Barnes-directed one-take video shows a typical Eels fan, played by Jon Hamm, finding solace in Eels music.
Eels leader Mark Oliver Everett, a.k.a. E, says:
“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.”
Speaking about the new record, E says:
“These songs came about just before the pandemic hit and changed everything. I’m hoping they can be, maybe kind of soothing or something. To hear songs dealing with things we are dreaming about getting back to. Or maybe people are dealing with some of the topics right now as well. Just one song was done in the thick of the early pandemic days, ‘Are We Alright Again,’ which is kind of a quarantine daydream I desperately needed to have.”
