Celebrating creative diversity in music and art, the video highlights Vans' extended family of musicians through a two-song performance. Vans welcomed Grammy award-winning artist, Anderson .Paak to step into the shoe box to perform "6 Summers" off his third studio album, Oxnard and a live rendition of "King James" his latest single from the highly acclaimed album, Ventura alongside members from his band, The Free Nationals.

As part of the experience, Anderson .Paak has selected visual artist, Dewey Sanders to transform the Vans shoe box with a Venice fueled art installation using his personal brand of psychedelia.
