This is a cover/music video adaptation of Okkervil River's song Lost Coastlines, off the album The Stand Ins. I've been wanting to do this project for a while now, and I'm glad to say it's finally done.

I found this song a little over a year ago, and felt I could relate to it in some ways, with how my move from Boston to San Francisco three years ago involved coming out here on a wing and a prayer, knowing practically nobody, and leaving almost everyone I knew behind. The seafaring motifs, melody and prose of the song stuck with me.

As I prepare to leave San Francisco for another move, I wanted to do this as a sort of loose adaptation music video and cover, as a love letter to the region that I've called home for the past three years. And it's just something that was fun and challenging to do, that friends, family, and I can enjoy.

The main song covered is Okkervil River's Lost Coastlines, and the end credits song is Andrew Prahlow's Travelers (from Outer Wilds), which also inspired the opening riff.

Filming and editing help would not have been possible without help, special thanks to Sika, Maxine, and Jack in that regard. And special thanks to Hype, Marlowe, Hans, and my family, for inspiring me, motivating me, and never giving up on me. I wouldn't be here without any of you. Love you, always have, always will.
