Alexa Ray Joel, daughter of singerBilly Joeland supermodelChristie Brinkley, is giving vintage vibes for the premiere of her “Seven Years” music video.
The 35-year-old singer-songwriter created a “charmingly” classic vintage-style music video set in her hometown of New York City with clips of 1940s black and white romantic film footage. Joel, who debuted her “Seven Years” single on April 16, said she wants fans to feel the “enchanted aura” that she created as the video depicts the city skyline inside a glittery snow globe.

She told PEOPLE that she hopes viewers get a sense of the story that “stretches beyond my own personal relationship… and hopefully, strikes a chord with other fellow romantics, nostalgics, and dreamers.”
“It narrates both the highs AND lows of my relationship, with an overarching message of hope… and pangs of reeling vulnerability and melancholia throughout,” Joel said of the video.
