Deep Sea Diver

PEOPLE ARE DEFINITELY PAYING ATTENTION TO THIS SEATTLE BAND — WHETHER OR NOT JESSICA DOBSON IS PLAYING SMOKING LEADS ATOP HER EYE-CATCHING “GUITAR SOLO BOX”

- Gregory Adams

DEEP SEA DIVER'S “Billboard Heart” music video is pure eye candy. Filmed out in the wide-open expanses of eastern Washington state, it finds guitarist-vocalist Jessica Dobson wandering deserted highways framed by cerulean skyscapes and a stunningly panoramic mountain view. Another sight to behold is the vintage Silvertone S-shape the bandleader is strumming unplugged throughout. How the thing actually sounds is anybody's guess – Dobson's included.

“I got that the week before we made the video,” Dobson says. “Peter [Mansen, drummer] found it in the back of a very large Seattle Goodwill that's like a warehouse. It was all beat up on the back, but everything else was intact. I actually have literally never plugged that guitar in. I probably should!”
