Du Blonde feedback…
It’s the story of who anyone was earlier than and after fame, and the unhappiness of shedding the nice particular person they was once. The music video has been ten years within the making. It was necessary to me to color an image of the historical past of the 2 individuals within the tune so we used footage of actor and musician Pete Chekvala and myself shot a decade in the past in Los Angeles to depict the purity and innocence of the early years, blended with newer, extra intense footage.
Though I’m performing within the early clips, I can see even now how a lot softer I used to be and the way a lot I nonetheless believed in the magic of individuals. I really feel like a number of the brand new album swings between characters and mindsets and having the ability to play with the extra unhinged sides of my persona each lyrically and aesthetically has been actually liberating and enjoyable.
Tune in now.
