Watch the video of the song ‘Disappear’, the forthcoming free single available from this site from 23rd February. One of the many highlights from the new album Dog Eared Moonlight released 9th March.
Frontman Robert White say’s ‘We wanted to do something very simple that actually resembled us playing the song as we would play it in rehearsal. So what better way than filming it where we rehearse… it looked a little too realistic until we made it black and white and zapped it through the ‘Anton Corbijn Filter’ and suddenly it looked quite moody and posh.’
The video was shot and directed by Robert and Jan and edited by Robert.’
