Eleanor Friedberger has shared her new music video for New View track “Never is a Long Time.” It’s composed of archival footage from SXSW, with appearances from Jeff Tweedy, Wesley Willis, the Jayhawks, Old 97s, Jon Langford, Beatle Bob, and MTV VJ Tabitha Soren. Watch the video and check out tour dates (which include a stop at this year’s SXSW) below.

Here’s what Friedberger said about the video:

When I was a student at the University of Texas, South by Southwest meant seeing five shows a day instead of five shows a week. There was no line to see Iggy Pop perform on a small outdoor stage off 6th Street or watch Wayne Coyne conduct his parking lot experiment. These were very formative years for me and watching these scenes, shot in 1996, is a good reminder that I still aspire to make music for my 19-year-old self, not music entirely dictated by computers and commercial interests.
