This is a perfect start to the day in my books, a new video from Doug Paisley feat. the one and only Bonnie “Prince” Billy for ‘Until I Find You’. It was written by Doug Paisley and recorded in Louisville last spring. It also features Emmett Kelly (of The Cairo Gang) on guitar and backing vocals.

It features the artwork of Toronto artist Heather Goodchild although this doesn’t resemble her normal themes, which, according to her website, aim to “explore the rituals, regalia and symbols of religion, didactic organizations and work-based cultures to understand the purpose of these traditions and their relation to personal and societal well-being.” Instead, she used portraits of both Will Oldham and Doug Paisley before assembling this stop-motion creation which is also our Song of the Day:
The song features on Doug’s new two-song single, which you can get your hands-on as a digital download via Amazon here.
