City Kiss is the third single taken from Fránçois & The Atlas Mountains’ ‘E Volo Love’ and will be available via digital download (RUG436D) on 16th April 2012. The track is a beautifully hazy shimmer of a song, all chiming guitars and surging orchestral sections. Watch the new video for the track HERE – directed by Elliot Dear, who says: “The Ciy Kiss video evolved organically. I had some specific narrative points planned, but because of the unpredictable nature of the shoot on the buses and trains, I really didn't know what footage we would end up with. Unexpected snow and an impromptu snowball fight with some kids in Hackney gives the video an element of spontaneity, and moments that I couldn't have planned for.” Following from videos filmed in France and Germany, this clip shows our truly European friends on a late night dream quest in London.
