Watch: Johnny Marr Reveals New Video For "New Town Velocity"

Johnny Marr has revealed the video for his latest single "New Town Velocity" taken from the critically acclaimed album 'The Messenger', released back in February via Sire/ADA . 

The song is part of our current playlist www.koolrockradio.com and was inspired by Marr's own story of the day he left school aged fifteen to pursue a life as a musician and features him in the council estate of Wythenshawe where he grew up. 

The video, directed by  David Barnes (who directed the Upstarts video and art directed by Subset) was shot around various buildings and areas of Greater Manchester and is based on the Psychogeography philosophy of the Situationist Movement.
