Watch: Philco Fiction – The City

Live session...

Philco Fiction recently shot an unusual live session – watch a new version of ‘The City’ below.

Haunting. Dramatic. Norwegian trio Philco Fiction released their debut album earlier this year, and immediately found themselves draped in all manner of superlatives.

At heart, though, the trio make pop music. Dark edged, powerful pop music but pop all the same. Debut LP ‘Take It Personal’ is out now, with Philco Fiction demonstrating an unerring knack for crafting earworm melodies that flit between R&B and Motown or even those Prince ballads, saturated in heartbreak.

The trio recently shot a live session, setting up outdoors and performing a handful of cuts from ‘Take It Personal’. ClashMusic have been given an exclusive clip of Philco Fiction performing ‘The City’ – much more stripped down than the studio version, this exposes the tender heart of the Norwegian group.

Watch it now.
