Holy Holy have released a video for Elevator, the first single from their upcoming Paint album which is out on February 24th, 2017.
The clip was filmed in Sydney and directed by Charlie Ford, who says: “The film was inspired by the key themes of memory, history and the undying connection that lovers share.”
“The song has a story built into it so for this clip we wanted to just tell that story,” Timothy Carroll of the band adds.
“So this clip is like a short film based on one night in the lives of two people who are ex-lovers seeing each other for the first time in a couple of years.”
“I can’t recall how it germinated, but before we knew it we were playing this same two chords, over and over,” guitarist Oscar Dawson has previously commented on the single’s origin. “And it built from there, like a conversation; starting softly, then bouncing around to become louder and louder.”
“It had been caught on a phone when we were touring in Europe, and back in Australia we put it together and decided that, in fact, it is a song.”
