Date: May 16th – July 3rd
2006 and 2007 were breakthrough years for pop-folk band The Weepies – their music appeared in dozens of primetime TV shows and films, they played festivals from the US to Europe, toured with the Indigo Girls, wrote with Mandy Moore, and topped the folk charts around the world.
So after the last two years, we figured we’d give The Weepies a rest and call on their fans to help create a video for their hit song “Hideaway.”
