Fresh from their recent European support dates with St. Vincent, Oxfordshire quartet Glass Animals have unveiled the video for their new single ‘Gooey’, which is out now via Wolf Tone / Caroline.
The video, which premiered on The Quietus and is now available on Vevo/YouTube, was shot by Australian director-duo The Apiary (Lily Coates & Gavin Youngs).
Glass Animals’ frontman Dave Bayley said of the video: “We wanted something that ran well alongside the threads of youth, naivety and the sort of playfulness in the lyrics. The Apiary’s films already had those elements, so we asked them to interpret ‘Gooey’ as a film. This is the result.”
‘Gooey’ follows-up last year’s scorching ‘Psylla’ single and is the first taster of Glass Animals’ forthcoming debut album, due out in the late Spring.
Armed with a fully-realised LP to come later in the year, a neuroscience degree (Bayley’s not just a hat-rack), and a seriously impressive live set-up, Glass Animals are primed for a very exciting twelve months and beyond.
