It’s OFFICIAL WHY was invited by the ONE campaign (Non- Partisan Grassroots Movement For Poverty Justice, started by U2 singer BONO) to shoot a live low fi performance of Protest Song in a public location. WHY had short window to rehearse and shoot it. They had one rehearsal and shot it the next night atop to Historic Marlborough Hotel in Winnipeg. Fellow Winnipeg artist FLO joined WHY in this hit and run shoot, directors Caitlin Quigley(who shot Sean Quigley’s viral hit “Little Drummer Boy”) and Brittney McIntosh a were able to capture their performance of the Rolling Stones classic “Gimme Shelter”. WHY was the only Winnipeg,(Canadian Rock Band) asked to do this.

We are thrilled it’s finally out.

If you were downtown near Smith and Portage in Winnipeg last night you may have heard live music coming from above.
More details coming.
Monday WHY released the official video for their song “Weep”.
Directed by Caitlin Quigley, (who shot her brother Sean Quigley’s “Little Drummer Boy” viral video).
Video was shot over a month in Winnipeg secret location.
“It was hard to do as the playback we were playing and singing to was 50% faster than normal, to get that slow motion look. But our drummer Dave Bergmuller had it worst, playing that fast every shoot day which would be 6 hours straight.” recalled Brian Cook singer.
WHY shot for 2 days straight in Winnipeg to finish up video for their single “Weep”.
