Watch: PINS Unveil New Video For "Get With Me"

Manchester four-piece PINS have unveiled the video for their latest single "Get With Me", taken from their upcoming debut album 'Girls Like Us', out on September 30th via Bella Union. The song is part of our current playlist www.koolrockradio.com.

The video was shot on Super 8 film in Brighton, UK by guitarist Lois MacDonald, who explains: "As a song, 'Get With Me' bears resemblance to the Dum Dum Girls: It's a driving hip-shaker that blends post-punk's sharp angles with surf rock's loose harmonies. As a video, 'Get With Me' catches PINS 'having a great time doing what we love, which evidently includes dancing on a beach in the English sun. It's infectious.' 

"We are a little captivated with analog equipment, we love the rawness and tangibility of doing things this way." MacDonald adds.
