soulstress eryn allen kane builds walls in “fragile”

It’s been several years since Prince protegee Eryn Allen Kane has released new music and thank goodness the songstress is back with a new video, “Fragile.”

An emotional performance piece, “Fragile” is a glorious expression of what happens to a sensitive heart in this turbulent, harsh world. Some of us hide our softness by building walls around ourselves. Self-directed by Kane herself, the visceral performance resonates deeply with Kane and her dance partner as they come together holding on to each other for dear life in a society that tries to break these ties down. Or one that tells us not to be too vulnerable.
