Who is Bryce Lamar?

Bryce Lamar is an independent artist based in Los Angeles who handles nearly every part of his records. On “Heaven,” the credits list him for music, production and vocals. On earlier releases he has written, produced and played guitar, strings and percussion, and he often brings in collaborators from very different traditions. His 2022 release Beyond features the Indian classical vocalist Pandit Girish Chatterjee, and his catalog includes the singles “Perfect,” “Visions,” “Before” with Elocin Cole, and “Hands,” which has also been remixed.

His website describes his work as “crafting deep sonic landscapes to reveal hidden doorways into transcendence.” That is a fair summary of how the music feels. These are songs built for headphones and quiet rooms, with space left around every sound.

What does Bryce Lamar’s “Heaven” sound like?

“Heaven” runs about three and a half minutes, and it is close to a hymn in shape. The vocal sits right up front, intimate and unhurried, while acoustic instruments, synth pads and textured samples open up behind it into something wide. The lyric is short and circular. It describes a boy walking down a road, looking for others who understand, and then returns years later from the point of view of someone who has walked that same road. The word “Heaven” closes each verse like a refrain.

Gabe Wiens handled additional mastering. Miranda Guzman, who shot the video, also made the single’s artwork.

Where was the “Heaven” music video filmed?

The video was shot at Valle Nuevo, a high-altitude national park in the Dominican Republic’s Cordillera Central, known for pine forest, open grassland and cool, misty weather. Miranda Guzman filmed it, Bryce edited it, and the wardrobe came from Elyahou Raphael and Ponshawl. The result is mostly landscape and stillness: fog rolling over long grass, a dark tree line under heavy cloud, a hand brushing a stalk of wild grass, and Bryce standing alone in a long woven wrap with his back to the camera. It is filmed in 4K, and it rewards a big screen.

The video has passed 96,000 views on YouTube in its first week.
