Truest Love, Bluest Love? Watch Stone Jack Jones' 'Circumstance' [Fresh Vid]

Without seeing the running order of Stone Jack Jones' forthcoming album, Love & Torture, it could be a little tough to figure out which songs are on which side — love, or torture. The first single, "Circumstance," could easily belong to either or both, as illustrated in this new vid produced by Ryan Zackaria and directed by Erich Vogel. Lambchop frontman Kurt Wagner, appearing as the "master of ceremonies," walks you into a foreboding scenario in which Jones' disembodied visage watches over a young couple in a desperate hour, played by Kyle Hamlett and Kelli Shay Hix (of Jones' band, as well as Lylas and others). It's a grim situation, but the piece shows us some of the beauty implicit in it. The album is out March 17.
