The stand-off between an old cowboy and a young man plays out in intriguing fashion in Martin Cannon's monochromatic promo for folk-rock outfit People! The video for Bricks is set in a darkened working men's club, where the ageing cowboy dude sips his beer, while the younger man parades his talent for dancing under the mirrorball on the dancefloor - until the tension between the two is broken in an unexpected fashion. Anchored by the strong visual presence of the two actors (David Prince and Bedwyr Bowen) and a sense of cinematic tension, the video has an energy bubbling under the surface, which spills over in the climax.With strong cinematography from Bryan Gavigan, Martin Cannon has created an unusual, atmospheric noir-ish episode which works well with the rootsy feel of the track. And then delivers a bonus cowboy twist.

Mihai Feflea directs a one-shot tour de force for Penguin Cafe, the new incarnation of legendary 70s/80s cult avant-pop band Penguin Cafe Orchestra.Deeply inspired by the dream world of Japanese magical realism, in the video for In Re Budd, the camera weaves around the room as the performance unfolds in a wonderfully meditative manner, capturing different perspectives of the musicians and their instruments.Each member of the band is wearing a Penguin head - maintaining the identity of the original group and their referencing their surreal album covers - for a song named in tribute to composer and ambient music pioneer Harold Budd.

Elliott Hale directs a reflective promo for The Bishop Boys, a singer-songwriter duo from Ontario, Canada, that wears its love of Wes Anderson on its sleeve. In the video for Guelph Riff, we follow the Bishop Boys' Austin and Andrew through a full year, continuing to create within the constraints of a sitting room. In true Anderson style, each season is titled, the camera is locked off to capture the action. The Boys even flip through that Wes Anderson coffee table book... Performing on a custom-built stage set, the pair live out their lives - celebrating birthdays, hanging out with their partners, creating music. Beyond the Wes references, the video reflects on our ability to adapt to different environments, whilst still feeling an urge to make things and socialise with loved ones. With the pandemic still fresh in everyone's minds, it's a super relatable concept, but told in an engaging way.
