Bushwick

bridges and powerlines’ new music video for “Bushwick” presents viewers with a hopeful, modern, indie rock portrait of loss and eventual triumph. Scenes include visions of heartbreak and isolation as experienced by two young women. We watch as heartache begins to overtake them, but just as their despair seems overwhelming, the power of music gives them new hope. The two young women meet on a rooftop where they find common ground and inspiration from the same song on the mysterious mixtape, which happens to be “Bushwick.” The catchy single is teeming with motivational lyrics and the gritty, yet organic vocals keep listeners afloat.
