Long-time Manic Street Preachers collaborator Kieran Evans directs a wistful promo for Manic Street Preachers.The video for Hiding In Plain Sight takes viewers on a nostalgic journey through the years with bassist/lyricist Nicky Wire - providing lead vocals for the first time on this track – as he reflects on the band’s legacy, leafing through historic photos and some of his iconic costumes.As well as looking back at the past, there is a celebratory energy which permeates the moments of introspection as much as it does the performances. With a naturalistic look and an inspired grade - which transitions from the 'everyday' to a glossy look at the end - it's a gloriously energetic visual, which teases the band's fifteenth studio album and a brand new UK tour.
