In Memory of Angelica Sapien

Los Angeles musician and Reckless Management artist Doll Klaw shares the music video for “Angelica”, a tribute to her childhood best friend. Doll Klaw talks about filming in their old neighborhood, jumping fences, and reconnecting with Angelica’s family.

Los Angeles, USA

What is the single, "Angelica", about? How does the video reflect the meaning of the song?

This song is a huge tribute to my friend Angelica I wanted the video to be a tribute to her as well. From her family enjoying each other’s company at the cemetery where she’s buried, to me re-visiting where we grew up and met each other when we were kids.

What was the process of the making the video? Who was involved?

Re-establishing relationships with Angelica’s family was a big process in the video. Being able to chill with her mom at her apartment collecting old photos, and also just drinking with her family and laughing together at the cemetery. The video would not be what it is if it wasn’t for her family’s participation. I’m super grateful that they took time out to be involved with the video.

Were there any challenges during the production of the video?

Not really. Probably getting the shot at our old elementary school we went to. I had to jump a fence and didn’t realize how long it had been since the last time I did so. Lol but we managed to get it done.

Do you have any favorite moments in music video for "Angelica"?

Yes! The ending! Where it’s my silhouette and the sky with the photos going in and out of frame. Rick did such a good job with that part.

What's next for you?

Thorns EP release! It will be released on all platforms February 16th!
