Los Angeles based musician Ward White has made a video for Here Come The Dowsers, the title track from his new concept album of sorts, a tongue-in-cheek collection about the movie business. What the Hell is a dowser? It is the name given to people who claim that they can find water or other vital and valuable things, without using proper equipment. So, it is basically peddling snake oil or other questionable practices to fool the punters.
It falls nicely into place with the glamorous facade that Hollywood is showing to the world, to hide the shenanigans that are going on off-camera. White looks at it with wonder and amusement, bringing it home with an ace melody, gently soaring guitar, and acting as his own backing vocalist.
Here Come The Dowsers will be released via boutique label Think Like a Key (CD, digital). Release date: May 17. It is available for pre-order here.
