Joesef has debuted the video for his latest single, ‘It’s Been A Little Heavy Lately’.
The clip documents the lead up to previous effort ‘Comedown’, telling the story through a series of present-day viewpoints and personal flashbacks.
Joesef explains: “It was important for me to try create this visual world that the new music could live in and continue to grow with each release, I originally wanted a one-shot car scene that would end at a party, but Luis the director fleshed out the idea setting it as a prequel to the ‘Comedown’ video. The film tells the story of a sort of overlapping relationship/love triangle, through present day and flashbacks.
“I wanted it to feel as dark as Trainspotting, but as colourful and subtle as a wong kar wai film. The team who helped pull it off were incredible and we had such a fucking laugh making it, Luis is one of the best directors doing it, its rare that you get to actualise an image of what you wanted in your head, but this video is exactly that for me.“
Joesef is set to hit the road later this year, with a UK and Ireland run slated in May.
