JETHRO TULL LAUNCH VIDEO FOR “MINE IS THE MOUNTAIN”
INSIDE OUT MUSIC/SONY MUSIC
British Progressive Rock Luminaries Jethro Tull released The Zealot GeneΒ earlier in 2022, their first new studio album in over 18 years. Garnering critical acclaim, as well as the bands first UK top 10 album since the 70βs, it also saw the band entering high in the charts in Germany, Finland, Switzerland, Austria and more.
With the band now back out on the road in Europe, they recently added the fan-favourite new track βMine Is The Mountainβ to their live set. To celebrate, a new video for the track has been commissioned, created by Tom Hicks who previously did the clip for βShoshana Sleepingβ. Watch the video now below or here: https://youtu.be/dwn6_qikkwQ
Of the track, Ian Anderson comments: βMine Is The Mountain is, perhaps, a late-life partner to the Aqualung album song My God. I had, as usual, a strong visual reference at the core of the lyrics. A miserable, committed trudge up Mount Sinai by Moses to face an angry maker before he must deliver the goods to his followers below is a powerful image, best imagined unless you are a wilderness trekker and much younger than I.β
Jethro Tull have a busy live schedule over the next few months, visiting countries across Europe. Find the full list of dates here: http://jethrotull.com/tour-dates
