Rogers pays homage to New York throughout the video. The “Light On” singer studied at the prestigious New York University. She graduated from the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music in May 2016 with a degree in music engineering production and English. She went viral when Pharrell Williams hosted a masterclass at NYU, with Rogers being a student at the time playing what would become her biggest hit: “Alaska.”

The “That’s Where I Am” music video acts as a small New York movie, with Rogers delivering a show-stopping performance. She struts the streets of the Big Apple like she owns the city, giving Carrie Bradshaw a run for her money. She wears a stunning coat and scarf and runs into musical heroes, such as the Talking Heads’ David Byrne.
