Honestly, I think everyone in my circle is a lot a bit pissed and scared right now, so it feels like the perfect time for Valerie June’s vibrant and playful music video for “Joy, Joy!” The Appalachian folk singer truly is a walking ray of sunshine - her positive energy effortlessly permeates through the screen. In our music video, she rocks an array of bright-colored outfits, a bold red lip, and a smile that is simply infectious.

Working with director Taylor Washington, who claims that this music video “was an ode to my love of light and shadows,” we see how effective this vision is. One memorable moment in the video showcases June’s silhouette illuminated by a sun-like spotlight.

“Joy, Joy!” has been on repeat since last night’s midnight drop, and we cannot wait for her new album, Owls, Omens, and Oracles, coming out on April 11. You can pre-save it here!
