In our post SXSW trolling of the internet, we came across this lovely little gem from the fine party folks over at Republic of Austin. As part of their “Voyeur Music Video” series (which is a little weird to begin with, but whatever), they recently spied on Kat Edmonson doing a gorgeous version of her tune “Lucky.” Of course, when is a Kat Edmonson tune not gorgeous? Don’t try to answer, it’s a trick question! This looks like it was filmed down at Ladybird Lake, but we’re not sure where that stage came from. Is that a thing? If so, we want to play on it. And if it was only put there for the video, then we have to wonder exactly what the RoA folks are doing with a stage like this in their back pockets. Portable disco floors for everyone! This is a fairly stripped down version of “Lucky,” with Edmonson accompanied only by vibraphone from Laura Scarborough, which makes the tune that much more enchanting. Check it out below, as well as Republic of Austin’s first video in the series from Hollywood Gossip playing outside of Shangri La.

Hi Guys:
Thanks for sharing our video!
Kat is always amazing–and we were glad to be a part of the magic!
The lit “stage” is actually a light installation at the Long Center. It’s always there, so you can live your brightest disco dreams anytime you want!
We launched this video series with the idea of steering away from the traditional “live music” video. We wanted something a little more intimate. After watching several of the first shoots for the series, it kind of reminded us of porn for music lovers. That’s why we called them “Voyeur Videos.” Hope you like them!
Best,
Chris apollo
