The Adam Ezra Group is creating a music video for "The Toast" and we'd like you to be a part of it!! 

For us, this song has always been about appreciating the moments we have together.  Because of this, it is always one of our favorite songs to play live.  Lately we've been really thinking that it's time for us to have an official music video posted for our community to enjoy, and surprise-surprise, we'd like you to be involved!  :) 

The Vision: 

Over the next few months AEG will be filming performances of this song everywhere we go...at home, on the streets, in the van, on stage, etc.  We will be filming on our phones, singing along to the track that's part of the "Hurricane Wind" album.   When it's time to actually edit this video together there will be many versions of us singing and playing that will be used throughout the video.   

That's only half of it though!  

In between shots of us, will be shots of YOU!!  Over the next month you can film yourself and post your video to an on-line folder we've set up just for this project!! 

Here are the 3 kinds of videos we will be accepting: 

1.  A horizontal (shot in landscape - think widescreen!) video of you or a group gathered anywhere you'd like, either toasting the camera or toasting each other. 

2.  A horizontal video of you or a group gathered anywhere you'd like, singing along to the "Hurricane Wind" recording during a chorus, a "raise up your glasses" line, or just about any other line in the song that speaks to you.   

3.  A horizontal video of you or a group gathered anywhere you'd like, singing along to the ENTIRE song....go for it!!! 

Tips and Pointers: 

1.  You do NOT have to be drinking alcohol.  Yes, we all know Adam likes his whiskey, but we believe that this song is about much more than that.  Feel free to raise up some coffees, sodas, milk, water, or simply sing along with no beverage at all!! 

2.  DIVERSITY AND CREATIVITY COUNT!!!!  We obviously can't use all the footage we get.  IN FACT, we have told our editor that we want him to be ENTIRELY in charge of which videos get used.  While there will be no bias based on relationships, he is under strict instructions to prioritize interesting locations, creative performances, good camera work, and vids that capture the wide range of ages and cultures that make up this incredible community of ours.     

3.  IF YOU ARE SINGING OR LIP SYNCING, DO IT TO THE RIGHT TRACK!!  THIS VIDEO WILL GO TO THE AUDIO OF "THE TOAST" OFF OF THE ALBUM "HURRICANE WIND".  If your performance is not done to the right version of the song, it will not line up right when we put the video together!  If you are just raising a glass, this obviously doesn't matter. 

4. SHOOT LANDSCAPE GODDAMNIT!!!  Other than that, pretty much anything goes.  Yes, we will accept selfie vids :) 

5. Yes, you can submit more than 1 video :) 

6. ALL VIDEOS MUST BE SUBMITTED BY AUGUST 1ST!!!!!! 

We are inspired by this community every day.  Thank you for being such an important part of what we do.  We can't wait to see what you come up with!!!! 

love,
