Stealing Sheep have shared their video for new track Show Love, directed by Korean animator Gyuri Cloe Lee.
It’s taken from their forthcoming album Big Wows, which is out on April 19th through Heavenly Recordings. “We heard about Gyuri through our friend Ewan Jones Morris, who recently worked with her on a video for John Grant’s ‘He’s Got His Mother’s Hips’ and we loved her acid color schemes and her surreal stream of consciousness style,” the band say.
“We’ve been collaborating with lots of women on this new album and we want a strong female energy in the music and visuals, so finding a female director for this was really important.”
“We also wanted someone who worked with this celluloid hand drawn style that combined with more digital aesthetics, color gradients and stop motion, it’s a perfect match for the song ‘Show Love’. A kind of sugar-coated apocalypse matches our zingy steel pans and crazy arpeggios. Also, check us out riding a pink fluffy sheep into space.”
