AKRON/FAMILY CALL FOR FAN VIDEOS

After receiving and enjoying some fan-made visual takes on their songs, Akron/Family is taking a cue from the digital age of "do-it-yourself" and asking fans to submit their own interpretations of A/F material (from their latest album, Set 'Em Wild, Set 'Em Free). The results so far are really unique and visually intriguing. Check out the band's Vimeo page to see some of the videos, and get inspired. A few examples after the jump.

From the band:
"We want fans to take whatever track (or tracks) they would like from the record and set them to the weirdest, simplest, or funniest visual material they like. A bear attacking a trash can. A quarterback being blitzed repeatedly. A herd of buffalo stampeding across the Dakotas. Whatever is their pleasure."

"Many Ghosts (video by Slo)"


"Gravelly Mountains of the Moon (video by Oliver Mains)":
