Sinead O'Connor is back with a new album ready to drop next month. In the meantime, she's released her new video for '4th and Vine' as a taster of what's to come. Directed by Kathryn Ferguson, it's an artfully done black and white promo focusing on Irish wedding customs, filmed just outside Dublin. It's also the first music video to feature Sinead herself in over ten years, as she busks in the pub at the wedding reception!
