Pip Blom have chosen Ruby to display more of their debut album Boat.
“We made a few jumps in our imagination, and we were explicitly not trying to explain or illustrate the lyrics,” director Raymond van Mil has said of its video. “We started with flamingos. Apparently there are two distinct families standing some 20 meters apart on one exact place in Zeeland/the Netherlands.”
“We went there and were in amazement, it looked so alien in the Dutch landscape. From there the UFO story unfolded and was fun. Was it a dream? A memory? A documentary? Only Pip knows. “
After the release of Pip’s debut album on May 31st, she and the band will be at various festivals around Europe including Field Day in London and Madrid’s Mad Cool.
