Watch :: The Modern Strangers spend a 'Magic Hour' in scenic Iceland for new video

Words: Sam Geary 

Tunbridge Wells-based brothers Max and Archie Davenport front the five-piece known as The Modern Strangers, who drop a little magic in the form of their music video for newest single, 'Magic Hour'.

Taken from their incoming EP 'Visions', out on July 12, the clip was filmed largely in Iceland, whose stunning scenery provides the backdrop to the euphoric electronic-pop track.

"We were really lucky to find some cheap flights to Iceland, where fittingly, the four hours of daylight they have when we went are always 'magic hour'," says frontman Max. "We wanted somewhere with huge scenery for the imagery; everywhere you look there is simply spectacular. It was pretty challenging, given that after the 4 hours of light, it goes dark incredibly fast, so we shot the rest of the video in our homeland of Dungeness and Camber."

The Modern Strangers play a release show at The Fiddler in Kilburn, north-west London on July 11.
