Tim Burgess has shared his new song ‘Sure Enough’.
Tim Burgess is a one-man creative industry. The past decade has brought two Charlatans albums, countless tours, and a plethora of books, alongside a blossoming solo career.
New album ‘Typical Music’ – a double LP, no less – is out on September 23rd, and it’s a broad, daring document. ‘Sure Enough’ is stripped from the album, and there are traces of early 70s pop – the McCartney-esque chord changes, and even the echoes of Robert Fripp in the guitar solo.
A kind of Matching Mole deep cut brought out into the blinking light of day, it’s also a superb, heart-on-sleeve pop song blessed with an earnest, empathetic vocal from Tim Burgess.
Callum Scott-Dyson directs the video, and it perfectly matches the whole innocence of the song itself. The film maker comments…
“As soon as I heard the track, I thought it’d be perfect for my stop motion style as the song had a really naturalistic, sort of old school sound, and my style is a little more retro than most animated stuff, so I was excited to dig in!”
“On the last video I did with Tim we did a card cut out video with a bit of a narrative and character running through it, so this time I wanted to just do something a bit more light, fun and montage based, sometimes playing off the lyrics and other times just doing its own thing.”
“I also decided to go with felt as the main material for all the elements in the video, which posed a bit more of a challenge in terms of movement but I was excited for the video to have a different feel and texture to anything I’d done in the past. I’m really happy with how it all came together and I hope people really enjoy it and feel more positive and upbeat when they check it out!”
