MUSIC

“I love THEESatisfaction. I love that they’re a young, twenty-something, live-in couple from Seattle making music together, as if loving and living together in your early 20’s isn’t hard enough. I love that they produce and write all their own music, which is completely instant vintage and summer cookout perfect.

I was honored when they accepted my treatment for their video, which included huge allusions to Mickalene Thomas‘ work. In the treatment I asked that they cast the video in an open, social media call. I wanted them to be a huge part of the process and casting the girls is ninety percent of what makes this video important.” – dream hampton, director
