Following a sold-out Jan & Feb tour in support of third album Grey Tickles, Black Pressure, and soon to return to these shores for more headline and festival dates, JOHN GRANT has today unveiled a video to new single ‘Voodoo Doll‘, the album’s freakiest and funkiest track. Directed by The Diamond Brothers, an identical twin directing team known for the Danko Jones Trilogy, Melt Yourself Down and numerous other music videos and commercials, the video sees John tending to a woollen doll in the hope of revitalising his depressed friend before transforming into a Voodoo doctor and indulging his latent love of make-up. Of the video the Diamond Brothers say: “We’ve been long time fans of John Grant since Queen of Denmark and leapt at the chance to collaborate on a music video for him. The rich visual imagery in his lyrics gave us so much to work with to create a lush world for his music to inhabit.”
