North Carolina's beloved Americana band Mipso have released an official video for 'Servant To It,' a track from their recently released acclaimed album Edges Run. Premiering with Culture Collide, the video shows the behind-the-scenes dynamic and shenanigans of the band on the road. Mipso's Libby Rodenbough (vocals, fiddle, songwriter) describes, 'There's a romantic myth about artists that doesn't square with the banal kind of privilege it usually takes to be one publicly. 'Servant To It' is a wink at that myth. This video is a portrait of our reality as working musicians. Jacob Blumberg, the creator, came out on the road with us on a recent run down through the Deep South, and he put together a ton of material-disposable camera stills, old VHS camcorder footage, etc.-in a way that conveys the fun and silliness and strangeness and madness of touring.'
