London//Bahrain psych/funk four-piece Flamingods have shared the video for their newest single "Marigold".
The song is part of our current playlist and is taken from release their upcoming fourth studio album ‘Levitation’, set to arrive on 3rd May via Moshi Moshi Records. Pre-order your copy here.
Directed by Barbu.TV, the video was shot on a trip to Oman which involved hazardous border crossings, Omani motorbike riders and the band creating their own ornate jackets. Shooting the video in and around the remote city of Nizwa you’re taken on a vibrant journey, featuring innovative camerawork and hypnotic animation.
“We had heard about this gang of motorbike riding youths through our friend and knew immediately that we wanted to make a music video with them. They live in a remote city in Oman called Nizwa and have had these vintage bikes passed down from generation to generation. I think the motion of them riding the bikes melded with the motorik groove of the song perfectly and the sun-soaked environment was just what we needed to capture the song’s themes".
