Here’s something to add a little brightness to your day: a stop-motion video of an ergonome dancing about with a coat stand, all set to a rather jaunty and sprightly track. The song is called “Jason” and it’s by Boston band Joy Kills Sorrow. When they asked the director for something whimsical, they certainly got that. Check it out the video below along with some tour dates.

Plugging away since 1999, The National finally hit mainstream success with the release of their 2010 album High Violet. Of course, this entailed their first world tour, but in the new documentary Mistaken For Strangers, it’s only the backdrop for the relationship between lead singer Matt Berninger and his younger brother Tom, who had no idea that these short videos he was shooting would turn into a public document of their troubled, if still loving brotherhood.
