Paste Magazine premieres the new video for “Eliza Jane” from Hite‘s just released debut album. Julia Easterlin (aka Hite) tells us the story behind the powerful clip: “I wrote the song about the birth of my younger sister Eliza, and I always thought that I’d love for her to star in a video if the opportunity arose. This past year my sister Eliza came out to my family as my brother River. We realized a video could be a powerful (and fun!) vehicle to address, explore and celebrate his transition, and when I proposed the idea to River, he was immediately on board.” She continues, “Alex Cullen, Julia Ngeow and the Resonant Pictures team were so passionate and generous in putting together this project. It’s a very personal joy for me and for my family – it’s a beautiful way for us to celebrate River and this gorgeous and pivotal time in his life. We’re happy to be able to make a proud and personal statement with this video.”
