Devendra Banhart has shared a music video for his new music “Sirens,” which is the second music to be shared from his upcoming album Flying Wig. This LP, which was produced by Cate Le Bon, is due out September 22 through Mexican Summer time. Try “Sirens” under, adopted by some upcoming tour dates.
Of “Sirens,” Banhart says in a press launch: “‘Sirens’ is in regards to the bewilderment that precedes longing, the area between ‘all the things hurts’ and ‘oh there’s a nail caught in my again,’ it’s just like the aid blended with concern that comes from lastly discovering the goal. We haven’t hit it but – however we all know the place to purpose, that’s the place the ‘And But’-ness of this music is. One other theme that appears prevalent all through the album is obstacles into antidotes. I imply, what a bummer proper? ‘Solely the violence will ever maintain me tight’ but when there’s no eliminating then our solely sane possibility is to study to bop with it. That is all lyrical…musically we wished it to really feel like dancing alone, weeping in a crowd, and by some means even stress-free into that melancholy, the sensual facet of sorrow, the mournful facet of pleasure.”
The video for “Sirens” was a collaboration with Christian Stavros directed by Joseph Wasilewski. Of the video, Banhart provides: “We wished to make a mini sci fi movie that was equally dystopian and utopian. What we got here up with was a world the place solely artists are allowed to run for any authorities positions, the presidency is all the time shared between two individuals. In our world two legends received, Tim Heidecker and Mitra Jouhari, and on this world everybody’s a masseuse and massages are obligatory (performed on my own and the superb Dorian Wooden) and crying is compulsory and enforced by legislation.”
Banhart beforehand launched the music “Twin,” which can also be featured on this upcoming album.
