Melody Gardot "Preacherman" (Calum Macdiarmid, dir.)

Many people feel that the spark of the civil rights movement was the tragic death of 14-year old Emmett Till in Mississippi on August 28, 1955. Now, almost sixty years later, director Calum MacDiarmid recreates that incident for Melody Gardot's new song — showing a different kind of intensity than the Run The Jewels clip from last month, but with the same messages conveyed.

Both the song and video have been endorsed by the Emmett Till Legacy Foundation.

Astroid Boys "Posted" (Chris McGaughey, dir.)

Astroid Boys are currently unsigned and doing everything themselves. They have made a lot of their videos in the past in-house and love the homemade feel that brings.

This is the fifth video Chris and Like an Egg have made for the band. He tries to continue that natual look and feel of the band in the videos but also add some creative flair and skill to make them stand out.

Calexico "Falling From The Sky" (Mikel Cee Karlsson, dir.)

Falling From The Sky, or How Jose Gonzalez Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Worm. 

Oddities abound here — from Jose Gonzalez being in a video for Calexico song that actually features Band Of Horses singer Ben Bridwell, to the creepy relationship with an ugly worm — but answers might be forthcoming in a follow-up video that's for a Gonzalez track. Or maybe not.

Heidi Klum in Sia "Fire Meets Gasoline" (Francesco Carrozzini, dir.)

Before you complain that Sia's mini muse Maddie Ziegler is nowhere to be found in this new video, you should know that:

  • It doubles as a short film for Heidi Klum Intimates
  • Heidi Klum is in the video and in her "intimates"
  • It co-stars Pedro Pascall, who you know for his head-crushingly great performace as Prince Oberyn on Game Of Thrones. (And yes, that's kind of a spoiler)
