Bonnie "Prince" Billy shares new single, "Hey Little"

"Hey Little" follows lead single "They Keep Trying To Find You" released last month, and arrives alongside a video directed by Brent Stewart & Maya Stewart.

Discussing the new song and its accompanying video, Will Oldham, the musician behind the Bonnie "Prince" Billy persona, says: “Hey Little” was written years ago for someone else to sing. Now I am a father; the lyrics are realigned and rearranged. Catherine Irwin sings with great soul. I asked Ryder McNair to listen to Madonna’s “Dear Jessie” for inspiration on the string arrangements.

"Brent Stewart and his daughter Maya brought a creative partnership to the video-making process. The shoot was seamless and joyful. Brent spoke of wanting to incorporate double-exposure (they shot on film) and I mentioned the Burt Lancaster film The Swimmer. Both Maya and Brent jumped on that idea with gusto, and friends here in Louisville let us film in their indoor pool in the dead of winter. Notable of course is Thomas Deakin’s beautiful clarinet solo. And the real live goats."
