NEW YORK - November 4, 2014 - Today, SHOWTIME premiered four official music videos for songs "Kansas City," "Down On The Bottom," "Diamond Ring" and "Hidee Hidee Ho #16" from the original documentary LOST SONGS: THE BASEMENT TAPES CONTINUED on YouTube (http://s.sho.com/1phVOf1).

Produced and directed by Sam Jones, LOST SONGS: THE BASEMENT TAPES CONTINUED chronicles the recording of new music from long-lost lyrics penned by legendary songwriter Bob Dylan in the summer of 1967. LOST SONGS: THE BASEMENT TAPES CONTINUED provides an exclusive and intimate look at five of today's most acclaimed artists - Elvis Costello, Rhiannon Giddens (Carolina Chocolate Drops), Taylor Goldsmith (Dawes), Jim James (My Morning Jacket) and Marcus Mumford (Mumford and Sons) - as they create music (along with acclaimed Oscar(R)-winning producer T Bone Burnett) for the two-dozen recently discovered lyrics written by Bob Dylan. The documentary coincides with the release of the T Bone Burnett-produced studio album Lost On the River: The New Basement Tapes by Electromagnetic Recordings/Harvest Records on November 10th.
The music video premieres from LOST SONGS: THE BASEMENT TAPES CONTINUED include:
- Kansas City (Written by Bob Dylan, Marcus Mumford & Taylor Goldsmith, with lead vocals by Mumford)

- Diamond Ring (Written by Bob Dylan and Taylor Goldsmith, with lead vocals by Goldsmith)
- Hidee Hidee Ho #16 (Written By Bob Dylan, Rhiannon Giddens and Elvis Costello, with lead vocals by Giddens)
A rare look inside the creative process of recording an album and the discovery of long-lost Dylan lyrics, LOST SONGS: THE BASEMENT TAPES CONTINUED captures this unprecedented musical collaboration between these musicians and 13-time Grammy winner Burnett, as they record these newly completed compositions in Hollywood's famed Capitol Studios. Jones, who directs the film, weaves these studio sessions into a broader narrative that incorporates the stories behind the original Basement Tapes, expounding on their cultural significance and charting their enduring influence. Carol Cohen also serves as the documentary's producer.
