After unveiling new single ‘After The Afterlife’ last week, CocoRosie, the sisters Sierra and Bianca Casady, follow it with a surreal new clip.
“It was exciting to be given so much creative space when working with CocoRosie,” says director Mike Basich. “It was a special project filming it in a place where the girls grew up in their younger years; adventuring through nature, dreaming of other lives in the land of Hawaii.”
Bianca describes the inspiration for the video as: “Nature, magic, ritual, fun…. There were no narrative ideas for the video un-like our other attempts, we just knew we wanted to document a true adventure and see what happens.”
“The smells [of Hawaii] take me back to early childhood. I feel a strange sense of home on the land. I walk barefoot. I love how the rain comes and goes all night and day.”
