"California Wine" Jason Heath
Apr 29, 2012
"California Wine" is a single from the 2012 album 'Packed for Exile' by the Americana rock band Jason Heath & The Greedy Souls from Los Angeles.
A song which lyrically portrays a modern female archetype, "California Wine" also relies upon the L.A. stereotype of an out-of-control celebrity who is out of touch and out-of-reach.
"California Wine" features a starry-eyed woman amid the skyscrapers of a golden state of mind, with her name in lights, a life of constant pageantry and worshipers up the ying yang.
She falls asleep in a golden sequined manger as she cries diamond tears to the sound of a laugh track playing in her head.
Surely, the woman must be high on California wine. She is!The "California Wine" music video (below), directed by Jeff Kussmann, features an attractive girl-next-door gone bad --- but not totally off a cliff.
While many speculate that the song was written about one Hollywood celebrity or another, it doesn't matter when the song is so cool.
"California Wine" by Jason Heath & The Greedy Souls is a crowd pleaser and one of the best California songs for popping the cork and spinning the bottle.
