“Watching the synchronized swimmers was fascinating,” Alex Lilly says of being on the “2% Milk” set. “The dancers are able to
keep time while under water, and they have a massive vocabulary of moves that
have been passed down through the long history of synchronized swimming. My
favorite move is called ‘Down The Drain’ where they spiral down under water
like they’re being sucked into oblivion.”
Director Sherry
Romito adds, “I was listening to KCRW
and Alex’s song ‘2% Milk’ came on. A music video popped into my head that I knew I
had to direct. Alex’s song inspired
a vision. I discovered we had a mutual friend on Instagram who put me in touch
with Alex, and I was over the moon
when she got on board. Alex rocked
the ‘Barbarella’ suit, put up with
my crazy ideas, and everyone on set enjoyed the lasagna.”

Alex Lilly –
About
Los Angeles-based artist Alex Lilly is a renaissance female.
In addition to the writing, arranging, producing, and
playing of her own music, Lilly has
established a notable career out on the road as a part of the touring bands of
such esteemed musicians Beck, Lorde, Ry Cooder, and The Bird and The
Bee.
Now Lilly has
brought all of her talents, ideas, and her singular voice to the table in the
form of 2% Milk, her debut full-length album, out now via newly-formed Release Me Records.
Lilly’s songs – she describes her sound as “sexy psychological
thriller” – are synthy, syrupy, and suspicious i.e. there’s something going on
here that’s not only pop, but actually pops. The intrigue that abounds on 2%
Milk moves the listener beyond toe-tapping and finger-snapping,
straight to brain-mapping.
2% Milk,
the debut album from Alex Lilly, is out
now. Alex Lilly is available for
interviews. Contact Josh Bloom
at Fanatic for more information.
