Accompanying the release is a DIY visual piece directed by Harvey’s long-time collaborator, Netti Hurley (Berwyn, Adidas, Nike). The first time the pair have worked exclusively and alone on Gus’s visuals, Harvey styled, produced and edited the video herself, with Hurley directing and shooting everything on location in Sitges, Barcelona.

The release also follows on from April’s single “Easy Pt. 1”, which officially marked Harvey’s return to music after a three-year hiatus for the acclaimed artist who has been championed by the likes of Clash, Notion, Hunger and Fault
