Croydon post-hardcore power duo Frauds have revealed the video for their new single ‘Money Honey’.
The band recently signed to Alcopop! Records, announcing that their forthcoming second album ‘Long Spoons’ which is scheduled for release in the summer.
Commenting on the single, vocalist and drummer Chris explains:
“It was a riff that had been around the block a few times that never worked until we slowed it down and put a kind of disco beat behind it. The song almost wrote itself from a plethora of notes on my phone. These notes were written on daily commutes across London for work which informed the narrative.”
The band shot the video themselves, taking inspiration from Scottish comedian Limmy to beat Covid limitations.
“Limmy is a huge inspiration,” adds Chris on the video. “When the pandemic hit I was reading his autobiography. It dawned on me that he works with huge restrictions all the time and yet comes up with ingenious set ups with just a camera and himself. We wanted to embrace the restrictions, thus the hula hoops.”
