In April, Sylvan Esso released their second album What Now. The band have now shared the video for album highlight ‘The Glow’. Following on from their sold out Village Underground show in May, the video comes ahead of festival appearances including London’s Citadel Festival and Latitude Festival as well as a full UK tour in November.
Speaking of the video director Elise Tyler said: “Part of growing up is balancing the wonder and awe you have for the adult world, mixed with a horrible feeling of emptiness – a mood switch that can flip anytime, anywhere. Music, friends, sex, rebellion – we look to each of these to fill that seemingly unending void. I wanted to explore that tender space that occupies so much of our youth, building upon the song’s lyrics, where friends are idolised, music saves you, and every night feels like the most exciting night of your life.”
