The new Winston Hightower single "On Our Own Time," out TODAY, confirms what we all already knew: Winston is the Artist of the Hour. When one views the videograph for "On Our Own Time" (shot, directed, and edited by Alexis McCrimmon), it is obvious there is more to Winston Hightower than being perpetual hardcore sideman. The imagery in the video (according to Winston) - - - 'it is the 4 personalities of the artist mending into 1; light, dark, business, art. The mantra “On Our Own Time” is the collaboration between the four personalities and speaks to the mental waves one goes thru when making art and the modes you have to switch into to get it completed.' Can you dig that scene?
