After dropping new single 'Suburbs' earlier this month, Marsicans now share their phone shot video for the track.
Ahead of their upcoming UK dates with Fickle Friends, Marsicans' singer James Newbigging got his mobile out - a Google Pixel 2 XL to be precise - while the band were on tour in North America to film this clip on location in Toronto and upstate New York.
"We shot this video ourselves when we were out in Canada and the US earlier this year. The suburban shots are in Ithaca, New York and the city shots are in Toronto," he says. "We were having a great time looking round these beautiful places and we thought we should probably make the most of our adventures out there.
"For the video itself, we wanted to try and recreate the disconnection between yourself and your surroundings, which the song refers to. We had a very basic outline and just filmed on the fly all week. It was great but we had no idea if what we had shot would actually work. Luckily, our friends at Sodium Films got involved for the edit and managed to pull it together exactly how we imagined it."
