The quietly celebratory music video for Brooklyn-via-Detroit singer/songwriter Victoria Reed's "Make It Easy" (playing below) is an ode to resilience. Showing the twenty-something Reed wandering through a sunny wood before coming to a blissful scenery at a waterfall, the crisp clip elegantly portrays internal struggle with compassion. Reed wrote the track (featured in her forthcoming debut album 'Chariot') as a kind of letter to herself and, with the serene imagery of director Miles Joris-Peyrafitte, she has imbued these accompanying visuals with reflective warmth. 'Chariot' is scheduled for release on February 26th, 2016. In the meantime, Victoria Reed plays at Baby's All Right on Monday (11.2). - Zach Weg
