Song is on latest Grammy-nominated album
Jackson Browne has released the music video for “Minutes To Downtown.” Directed by his son Ryan, it simply features Browne tooling around Los Angeles, with no beginning, middle or end.
“The song is about wanting to be somewhere else, but for whatever reasons, you’re tied to the place where you live and the things you do,” Browne says of the Downhill From Everywhere track. “So I wanted it to be me driving around. To me, the video has a distinctive feature, which is that nothing happens. You don’t arrive anywhere, right?”
Browne’s extensive US full band tour kicks off tonight at St. Louis Music Park in Maryland Heights, MO, with dates running through September. The tour supports Browne’s acclaimed, GRAMMY-nominated album Downhill From Everywhere.
