While so many artists have neglected making creative music videos, worth more than showing off how great the musician is are or how big their boat is (or just that they’re… on a boat), it’s refreshing to see something about more than the performer.

What ever happened to Koolanoo?

With a promo video like this, how could they not be around anymore?
