George Eve’s new track ‘Gates’ has been revealed alongside its official video.
Eve filmed and edited the video when lockdown was loosened last October. He took to the streets of London armed with just his iPhone to capture snippets of what life was like in lockdown, as well as uplifting shots of being reunited with family and friends. It also features some subtle music references, including street art of Amy Winehouse in Ladbroke Grove and the original Rough Trade record store. Eve says:
“One day I was noodling on the guitar and found the song’s easy groove. I was feeling pretty happy at the time, so I tried to be as honest as possible lyrically and the whole song emerged at once. It made me feel better about what I was experiencing at the time, so I hope it can help other people too.”
