“The burdens of dual identities — mother and career woman — weigh heavily on Jessi Williams in the exceptionally moving new video for the song, ‘Roam, Little Gypsy, Roam.’ The video is essentially a biopic in under 4 minutes, dreamily portraying the singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist across three stages of life."
~ Kevin Bronson, Buzzbands LA
Jessi Williams & Coyote’s debut single “Roam, Little Gypsy, Roam” signals the arrival of an artist who is not afraid to get deeply intimate. A profoundly personal song composed by Williams for her fellow songstress and longtime friend Margo Price, “Roam” features poetic lyrics that examine the female expectations and pressures experienced first as a young adult, all the way to motherhood.
Featuring appearances from Jessi's real-life mother and daughter, the video uses a dreamy atmosphere and brilliant camera work to highlight themes of motherhood, aging, and domesticity across three generations.
