LiveXLive To Premiere Laura Bell Bundy’s New Video
LiveXLive has announced that actress/singer/Broadway star Laura Bell Bundy is releasing the music video to her newest single “American Girl” featuring Shea Carter on the platform. The exclusive premiere will take place Feb. 18 at 8 p.m. ET along with interviews and behind the scenes footage on LiveXLive’s original franchises of LiveZone and Music Lives ON as well as on-demand.
“American Girl” is the third single off Bundy’s upcoming album, Women of Tomorrow, due out this spring. “American Girl” was penned by Bundy, Carter, and Jeremy Adelman.
Bundy says, “The video feels like a walk into the past, but it is just showing that as much as things have changed they really haven’t. The same expectations of what it means to be a woman persist. We go into debt trying to become that woman too… financially and emotionally… leaving us empty and wondering why we are not happy.”
