Strangers on a Plane - All My Life

Evren Oz and Courteney Brookes of Strangers on a Plane released their music video to All My Life last year, after the release of their self-titled album.

As they describe, “All My Life explores modern society's obsession with plastic. The domestic industrialized life defined by rampant consumerism finds itself wrapped and trapped in plastics of all sorts in the video for the song."

The video shows an alternate world where everything is heavily coated in plastic, with the characters barely moving in order to capture the effects plastic has on people.

How Tei Shi Freed Herself from The Music Industry to Take Control of Her Career

After years of working with teams that left her feeling frustrated and unsupported, the Colombian-Canadian artist tells Billboard Canada how she's returned to her indie roots with the confident, vulnerable new album 'Valerie.'

At the end of 2020, Tei Shi was far from her L.A. home, in a dark London basement, trying to do something she hadn’t done in months: write a song.

She had spent the previous half-year of pandemic lockdown coming to a slow realization that she needed to regain control of her career. For the second time, the Canadian-Colombian singer was in a label deal that wasn’t working, with a team she didn’t feel supported by. The loss of autonomy was stifling her creative voice. “I felt like I stopped being able to hear myself,” she says.
