Video Of The Week
Waves | Miike Snow
Hey there St Andrews Radio friends, This week we have a new release from Miike Snow. This Swedish indie pop band grew to fame with their first album, Miike Snow, and the track 'Animal', released in 2009. Now a second album 'Happy to You' is set to be released at the end of this very month. This video was presented to the world, on the 15th of March, as the second single off this album. The first being 'Black Tin Box' a collaboration with fellow swede, Lykke Li, which was on the playlist a couple of weeks back. Its one powerful piece.
Directed by Andreas Nillson, an incredible director, producer and visual director, creating works the the likes of Fever Ray, Jose Gonzalez, MGMT, and many more. If you would like to find out more about his work head to here:
