Having recently released his eighth studio album Mangy Love to critical acclaim, Cass McCombs has today shared the video for the Angel Olsen-featuring ‘Opposite House‘.
Perfectly capturing the strangeness and humour found throughout Mangy Love, director Jonny Look had this to say about the clip:
“After hearing the track I focused on channeling some of the surreal elements of Cass’s lyrics as well as the endless beauty and gentleness of it’s soundscape. I wanted the surreal elements of our video to be somewhat connected – so it wasn’t just surreal for surreal sake. Something funny, and a little strange.
During the chorus, Cass and Angel both sing “Oh Why?”, and I thought that watching people blow tea across the table might have the viewers ask that same question.
For most of my ideas I try to balance beauty and silliness. It’s a kind of an inside joke – something that will hopefully make you chuckle at the very end. I wanted to present the video as though it could all be real – as though we found some ‘Tea Blowers’ to perform as a backdrop to Cass and Angel’s performance. I wanted the viewer to be amazed after the first trick, stunned at the second, and then confused by the third. Hopefully by then they feel in on the joke.“
Cass McCombs, accompanied by a full band, will tour North America and Europe this autumn, including London’s Scala on 7 November. Joining Cass McCombs Band are friends & related acts from the underground: Delicate Steve, Be Gulls, Meg Baird, Big Search, Jack Name, Hush Arbors and more. Mangy Love is out now via ANTI-.
