Amherst-born musician Jon McKiel's latest music video was filmed live at the Seahorse Tavern. McKiel calls the video a "takeaway show."

"For me, there wasn't a lot of footage of the band playing," says McKiel. "We've been playing together for a couple years but like, I didn't have a lot of video evidence of that."

McKiel's new album, Memorial Ten Count, is to be released March 10. His next Halifax performance is scheduled for April 20 at—you guessed it—the Seahorse.
