Track Of The Week comes from Pip Blom and the latest cut from their upcoming debut album Boat.
Ruby arrived earlier this week with a video directed by Raymond van Mil, who said they had ‘made a few jumps in our imagination and were explicitly not trying to explain or illustrate the lyrics’ when they came up with its concept. “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. “
Boat is released on May 31st; on that day Pip and the band will be at Rough Trade East in London as part of a UK tour which is due to begin at the Stag & Dagger Festival in Glasgow.
