The recording sessions for the album at Prairie Sun Studios in Cotati, California, where many of Nataly Dawn's favorite Tom Waits albums had been made, were filmed and are being periodically be released as companion videos on Dawn’s YouTube channel. The latest video, for "Why Did You Marry," is now available there and posted below.
