Get in the Van with Lee Corey Oswald’s Video for “Sarah, Work Is a Four Letter Word”

What they don’t often tell you about the incredibly glamorous and unprofitable life of a touring band in a van is that the whole thing is actually incredibly lonely. Sure, you’re surrounded by friends and people who like your music, but that somehow just makes you feel more isolated. Aside from the time you get on stage, there are long, silent stretches in the van where everyone is listening to podcasts or playing Bejeweled to themselves and you just sit and think of your loved ones back home. Lee Corey Oswald’s new video for “Sarah, Work Is a Four Letter Word” captures this feeling pretty well. Frontman Lee Ellis describes himself as “very drunk and anxious-like” when they filmed it in the backseat of their van.

Watch it below and let those somber backseat feels hit you. “Sarah, Work Is a Four Letter Word” is off of Lee Corey Oswald’s 2014 album Regards. Lee Ellis has a solo album out on June 23 called Me And This Army via No Sleep Records. The band will also play the Warped Tour this year.
