Briston Maroney Contacts Aliens From His Attic in "Rose" Video

Today, Briston Maroney releases new music video "Rose." Following "Under My Skin" and "Freakin' Out On the Interstate," "Rose" is Maroney's third video and counting with recurring collaborator, former roommate, and fellow in-demand Nashvillian Joey Brodnax. "Rose" is also the epic and endearing close to Maroney's recent Carnival EP, his first for Canvasback Music, and a gripping introduction to new "proof that rock and roll is very much alive" (NPR).

On "Rose," The 21-year-old channels a childhood spent shuttling back and forth between households in Knoxville, TN, and Florida's Amelia Island, telling an unsettling tale of extraterrestrial communication. Maroney uses a spaceship tent, the hieroglyphics on his chest, divine iconography, and a haphazard crown of antennas to convert his attic into an otherworldly portal. 

After navigating a nomadic past, dropping out of college and restarting his life, Briston Maroney landed in the middle of Nashville's fertile DIY scene. His scrappy vision cuts to the bone with a voice gentle and guttural, filtering early fascinations with John Prine through his own unique palette and producing music at a prolific pace. Maroney is preparing to release another EP in the coming weeks. 

Maroney is currently on tour with Vacation Manor, and is set to support both Liz Cooper & the Stampede and Wallows on their tours this spring and summer, with more shows coming through the rest of the year – full dates below.

Watch him perform his millions-streamed "Freakin' Out On the Interstate" live on World Cafe.
