Alimorad's "Beautiful" has more than 1.7 million views on YouTube. The debut of the new music video is set for 7 p.m., March 1, at Uncle Henry’s Bar & Grill at 309 Halstead Ave. in Harrison.
"The song’s tongue-in-cheek lyrics and pop-punk sound revel in the angst and humor that comes when you rid yourself of a crazy ex-girlfriend," representatives said. "The video tells the tale of said crazy ex-girlfriend (played by Jena Finn) camped out on the singer’s front lawn, biding her time until the day when she attempts to win him back. On that particular day, Alimorad happens to be throwing a pool party and, after seeing several people making their way into his backyard, she investigates to see what’s going on. When she finds out that she’s banned from the event, she does everything she can to find a way to get in and get at the rocker."
Alimorad said the making of the music video was like a homecoming party.
“I hooked up with a film crew that was made up of people from throughout Westchester County,” he said. "And then a friend let me use their house in West Harrison to film the video.”
The band and party goers are all friends that Alimorad grew up with during his school days.
“It really brought a hometown feel to the whole project, so how could I debut the music video in any place else other than my favorite bar in Harrison," he said.
