Ladyhawke Unveils ‘A Love Song’

Her soaring return continues...

Atmospheric electro-pop artist Ladyhawke has revealed the Youth Hymns directed video for latest single 'A Love Song'.

The track, which encapsulates pulsating synths and swooning vocals, is set in a retro video store, reflecting the unmistakable 80s tinges laced throughout the song.

Speaking about the video itself Ladyhawke, real name Pip Brown, explains:

“The basic premise of the video is: a bored video store clerk wasting time talking on the phone has her evening changed when a mysterious figure walks in and leaves a VHS on the counter marked 'a love song'. She puts it in the video player and I appear on the screen singing to her. From that moment on every person that walks in the store she falls in love with. It was a really fun shoot directed by Youth Hymns, and all the extras were amazing and fun to work with!”
