"Here it is !! The “Palm Springs” music video. I wanted to do something different with this video, to show people a little window into the things I care about outside of the music. On a personal level this video stands for what I can accomplish when I take myself out of toxicity and love myself instead. I hope you love it" - Ariel Beesley 

Let your inner activist Hump Day & Chill today in one of the best ways I can imagine, with Ariel Beesley. This young woman who I have know since she was, oh never mind, no need to go there. But she is a complete source of inspiration to me in everything she does. Trust me, it takes some kind of special to inspire me.

The video for her latest single "Palm Springs" has dropped and I LOVE what she co-directed along with Lili Peper. It documents Ariel putting together a benefit for the ACLU called "Front Line Girls" (which I attended) and I couldn't be more blown away by this young woman's passion. She puts her money where her vocal chords are.

Thus, I'm going to leave you with the video and a way to find Ms. Beesley on Instagram, as well as a link to donate to the ACLU to honor the artist and humanity. 

Hump Day & Chill minions!
