Joel P. West has been a long time supporter of Invisible Children and collaborated with Sundance award winning director Destin Daniel Cretton for this dreamy video of his band THE TREE RING.

The concert was in the middle of the woods at Mt. Laguna and the cost to get in was a 30 minute hike out there. We even picked up some hitch-hikers (no pun intended) along the way.

The shoot was intended to be part of a mini Brita documentary but why not turn it into a full music video?

A little piece of trivia is that Joel wrote all the music for Destin’s film I AM NOT A HIPSTER and is also scoring the new KONY 2012 film.

Also… if you stalk our podcasts and website like a true IC supporter, you’ll notice a handful of IC staff and interns in the video.

Enjoy!
