Music | New Music: South of France - "Washed Up" | Video
Denver’s beloved indie-pop duo South Of France have returned to deliver their own compelling sense of style to the music and the fashion world alike. The band have unleashed their newest single “Washed Up” in conjunction with the launch of their collaboration with cutting-edge clothing brand Akomplice, available NOW on the Akomplice webstore. “Washed Up” is out now on iTunes and Spotify via Play + Record.
Now, South Of France carve out another facet in their ability to bring their sunny tunes to life in all dimensions. The video for “Washed Up” shines light on the vision of both the band, directors Jasper Gray and Frank Pickell, and production house Futuristic Films. The creation came about in a unique way as described by Futuristic Films, as they, “ended up shooting on a sub-zero January night with a skeleton crew at the Museum of Nature and Science in Denver. With a little bit of DIY ingenuity, we were able to take advantage of the awesome production value of having the museum as our set. The end result is a strange, ever changing world that just felt right for the music.”
Launched by multi-instrumentalist and producer Jeff Cormack in 2012, South Of France, began as a lo-fi garage rock project until Jeff was introduced to Kelly Lueke. Upon discovering their amazingly similar taste in music, the two joined forcesand soon settled into their signature reverb-soaked indie pop harmonies. Their debut LP Another Boring Sunrise was critically lauded and the band have since shared stages with TV On The Radio, Portugal. The Man, Jimmy Eat World and many others. The duo recently married and are hard at work on their next album. The band recently played two shows with the Flaming Lips in Aspen and are set to open for Bob Mould at the Boulder Theater in Boulder, CO on May 7th. and have shows coming up in NYC this June as well- stay tuned for more details soon!
