Effortless
“Day Dreams”,
a film short from
the 1920s, the most
prolific and
transcendent decade
in the creative
output of
actor-director+
Buster Keaton, is
here revisited for
the eleventh music
video in Allison Crowe's "16 Songs".

Unafraid in ideas
and body, Keaton’s
genius flowered in
the freedom of his
own film unit
working outside the
studio system. A
century on,
musician Crowe
engages a parallel
track in her own
art, rewarding
audiences with a
peerless body of
recordings and live
performances
produced free of
industry forces.
“Effortless”
is first released
on “This Little
Bird” album
(Allison Crowe –
vocals, piano,
engineer, producer;
Dave Baird – bass;
Laurent Boucher –
percussion).
