Multi-Grammy winner&nbsp;Billie Eilish, now directing her own videos&nbsp;as confidently as she makes hit records, takes her brother Finneas for a drive that takes them through the city to the beach - and then into the depths of the ocean.They seem cool about it, and we can take this as edgy&nbsp;proof of the closeness of their relationship.

In stark&nbsp;contrast to their other new video for <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/videos/2015/05/11/slaves-cheer-london-ben-ross" target="_blank">The Slaves</a>, Ben &amp; Ross&#39;s promo for Borns&#39; Electric Love shimmers with classic rock glamour and super-glam lighting. It&#39;s an enticing&nbsp;performance lit with neon light and populated with glow-in-the-dark backup dancers, and gives Borns (aka Garrett Borns) pretentions of icon status.&nbsp;He performs atop a glowing LED dance platform before suddenly&nbsp;glowing white-hot himself. Then continuing with the video&#39;s&nbsp;electricity-centered theme, the singer finds himself in an&nbsp;animated electric love vortex made up of&nbsp;neon signs. A trippy video for all the new-age psyche-lovers out there.&nbsp;

Ethan Lader delivers his promo for The Script's Hall Of Fame which sees the Irish rockers form an unlikely pairing with Will.i.am. The band's Danny O'Donoghue met the Black Eyed Pea on the set of UK TV show The Voice, on which they both star.
Taken from their new album #3 (September 10), Lader's promo sees the band performing in an empty warehouse with an additional narrative involving two characters - a ballet dancer and a boxer - both striving against the odds to achieve greatness in their fields.

DoYaThing, the genre-blending single written, recorded and produced by Gorillaz, Andre 3000, and LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy (it's part of Converse's ongoing Three Artists. One Song series) now has an awesome video directed, of course, by Gorillaz co-creator Jamie Hewlett. 
Welcome to the Gorillaz house, where the day is just beginning. Not a good time to encounter Murdoc... Brilliant.

http://www.youtube.com/watchv=GwTXwJg6_VE&amp;ob=av2e Brett Simon's promo for Snow Patrol is a humourous take on the performance video with actor Jack Davenport in the singer's role and Boston Legal actress Tara Summers is excellent as the '1st AD'.
Gary Lightbody (Snow Patrol frontman) doesn't take himself too seriously either...

The Wombats return, dispensing with their chirpy-chap image of yore in favour of full (and rather unlikely) rock and roll shallowness: Japanese sex, loads of drugs, and fucked-up fame. It's a tough job, etc...
Much well-crafted fun from LA-based directing team The General Assembly - who brought us Grum's wonderful <a href="http://www.promonews.tv/2010/07/30/grum%E2%80%99s-through-the-night-by-the-general-assembly/" target="_blank">Through The Night</a> - in their first UK label commission.

Har Mar, last seen by your correspondent guest-caterwauling Electric Feel at MGMT's Glastonbury show last year, unveils new stuff of his own in the super-stylish and loadsafun Photosonics-shot vid for Tallboy by Tomorrow's Brightest Minds - TBM's first video in ages - with a little help from his superstar friends. 
Eva Mendes guest stars, together with lots more beautiful people - and Eric Wareheim. None more beautiful than Har Mar himself, of course.

Newbie Katy meets Kinga Burza, and together they make one big pink girlie party.
But unfortunately, what with the lyrics and lingerie, and the fact that Katy's sitting there stroking her kitty, it's way too sexy.
It's the first US production in the irresistible rise of Kinga, and probably the first of many.
Furthermore, it's art directed by the exquisitely-named Benji Bamps.
