AJR Drops New Music Video for “Ordinaryish People” featuring Blue Man Group
New York City-based alt-pop trio AJR has dropped a new music video for “Ordinaryish People” directed by Edoardo Ranaboldo.
The trio teamed up with American performance art company Blue Man Group on the track.
The song appeared on their fourth studio album “OK Orchestra”, which was released in 2021.
“Blue Man Group lives for collaboration-it's how we came to exist. So when this zany, yet incredibly insightful band AJR approached us we were beyond thrilled,” said Blue Man Group Head of Artistic Direction Tim Aumiller. “When we walked on set, it was quite exhilarating to see this very clear homage to Blue Man and understand how perfectly suited we were for a match-up.”
"The collaboration with AJR was an exciting collision of worlds,” said Blue Man Group Associate Music Director Jeff Quay. "During the process, I found that the Blue Man sound is flexible enough to adapt to the 'hyper-pop' world that AJR inhabits. Both AJR and Blue Man Group feel right at home together."
“We always remember going to our first Blue Man Group show, and being so confused, in the best way. Not knowing what could possibly come next," said AJR. "That's what made them the perfect left turn for the bridge in 'Ordinaryish People.'”- source : YouTube
