Natalie Merchant shares the video for “Tower of Babel,” from her 2023 album, Keep Your Courage. “As much as I had wanted to not let events in the world intrude,” Merchant says of the song, “I couldn’t disregard the prevailing atmosphere of fear and confusion that we have been living in as a result of the pandemic, climate crisis, economic instability, insane politics, violent insurrection, and the shocking fallout from the conservative-stacked reactionary Supreme Court.” The video, filmed in Brooklyn, is directed by Matthew Shattuck and edited by Andrew Pulaski.
