Eric Benoit shares captivating video for "Dragonflies"

Eric Benoit will see release of his new album, Heartrender, next Friday, January 26. Today, PopMatters has premiered a video for standout track "Dragonflies," which you can check out below. Reflecting on the video, PopMatters writer Jonathan Frahm had this to say: "For all of the cinematic production and innate musical artistry present on 'Dragonflies,' the most captivating part of it all might well be how achingly, tangibly real it is—more-so than most would have courage or audacity to show in their art. For Benoit to have done so, it means that his art is true."
