Eleni Mandell Releases Charming Music Video for "Old Man, Old Dog" from Her 12th Studio Album "Tailspin"

Celebrated singer-songwriter Eleni Mandell has released the official music video for "Old Man, Old Dog," directed by Daiana Feuer, a standout track from her 12th studio album, "Tailspin."

The music video follows Mandell and her daughter, Della, as they wander the streets of Los Angeles armed with fliers, searching for the real-life old man and his dog that inspired the song. The playful premise captures the spirit of the track itself — a tender, humorous ode to two neighborhood fixtures. Sharp-eyed fans will also catch a notable easter egg: the outfit Mandell wears in the video is the same one featured on the cover of her beloved album "Thrill."

Lyrically, "Old Man, Old Dog" showcases Mandell's signature blend of sharp observation and gentle humor and harkens back to her early Tom Waits influence. Featuring Mandell on acoustic guitar and vocals, Steve Gregoropoulos on organ, Danny Frankel on drums, and Taylor Plenn on saxophone. There is a warm, unhurried quality that mirrors its subject, two slow-moving companions, each loyal to the other, finding joy in the rhythm of everyday life.  "Old Man, Old Dog" offers up hope and a reminder to pause and appreciate the tiny moments that bring genuine joy.

"Old Man, Old Dog" is available now on all major streaming platforms.
