THE BOBBY LEES RELEASE VIDEO FOR NEW TRACK "DIG YOUR HIPS"
WILL RELEASE HOLLYWOOD JUNKYARD EP ON 17TH JUNE
ON TOUR THROUGHOUT JUNE AND JULY
Un-tempered, no frills rock 'n' roll comes from The Bobby Lees as they release the video for the riotous new track "Dig Your Hips", taken from the upcoming four-song Hollywood Junkyard EP on June 17th. The band are also set to tour throughout June and July, which will mark the band's first shows in the UK and Ireland.
On the song, Sam (vocals) says "This song’s about a psychotic episode I had while partying in the desert, and the feeling of wanting to set fire to your life and run away from it with someone you barely know."
Drummer Macky adds, "this song is about exactly what it sounds like. With most things but most notably art there’s no such thing as objectivity, pretty ironic considering how objects are viewed as a pretty ubiquitous medium for artistic expression. Anyway, the way we relate with an object, surprisingly, has a lot to do with our own spacial and conceptual relationship to it. All that is to say that it’d feel a little too self indulgent to give a personal overview of the song as at the end of the day I’d just be forcing you to watch the movie, my movie, before you read the book, so to speak… That being said, this song is about exactly what it sounds like. I really hope you like it!"
The video, directed by John Swab, was shot in an abandoned factory whilst the band were on tour in Tulsa, Oklahoma in March.
