When we had our first conversation about making a music video for Steve Martin we said the same thing many people have said, “Steve Martin's in a band?” Well, sort of. We learned that the band is the Steep Canyon Rangers and Steve Martin had joined them on their 2011 album Rare Bird Alert. Working with Steve’s face on a 3D puppet bird body was one of those experiences you look back on and think ,“yep, that was pretty awesome.”
