Trizonna McClendon’s Homecoming: On the set of “Shatter Proof”
“The past repeats itself, but wears a brand new face…”
As much as this quote pretty much sums up my romantic relationships as of late (*sigh, followed by a Moscato-induced giggle*), it’s actually a description of NEWFAMILIAR (4 The Soul-Reciprocity, 2009), the sophomore release from Chicago’s very own Trizonna McClendon. Trizonna McClendon proved on her debut CD, Overtones & Innuendos, that she has an intimate connection to the joys and trials of the young woman’s journey through love and life. A kindred, almost psychic, ability to tell OUR stories; a soulful soundtrack of life.
Ms. McClendon, aka Triz, aka Trizzie Mac, returns with the familiar blend of angelic harmonies and heartfelt lyricism her fans have come to expect and a new, fresh perspective and sound. NEWFAMILIAR showcases Trizonna as both vintage and futuristic, and this was definitely the look and feel on her video shoot for the single, “Shatter Proof.”
Trizonna and the 4 The Soul-Reciprocity/ Honest Managment camps shot the video, directed by Cooley, in Triz’s hometown in the penthouse suite of the beautiful Avenue Hotel. “Shatter Proof” is a sexy song of romantic cat and mouse games, set over an 80′s style syth beat. I had the fortunate opportunity to make a cameo in the video, playing the super fabulous journalist who interviews Trizonna and gets the juicy insider scoop on Mr. Shatter Proof. Basically, I got to play myself, lol.
Be sure to look out for the video and support Trizonna. NEWFAMILIAR is available right now! For more information, check out Trizonna’s Web site and Myspace. In the meantime, check out more pics from the shoot.
