Gambles Presents “You Won’t Remind It”

Gambles is proud to share the music video for “You Won’t Remind It” which appears on his forthcoming EP entitled I Can’t Keep Still When It Comes To You. The video is focuses on Chris, a homeless man Gambles’ frontman Matthew Daniel Siskin has known for the last three years; in a collaboration with filmmaker Joe Wehner, Chris dons a GoPro camera and the result is insightful, jarring and beautiful. “For 16 years, Chris has lived between Versace and Vera Wang on Mercer Street. We’ve been friends for the past three; long conversations about his experiences, where he was from, his brother he lost touch with 35 years ago,” explains Siskin. The video functions as a mirror that flips our perspective and makes us aware of how easy it can be to look another man in the face yet erase his presence. It’s an insight into the experience of Chris and others like him. Shortly after the production of the video, Chris moved into The Bowery Mission after years on their wait list. Support The Bowery Mission – an organization that provided more than 382,400 meals, 34,850 bags of groceries, 93,700 nights of shelter and 48,600 articles of clothing last year online.
