Brooklyn Vegan Debuts Leif Vollebekk’s “Blood Brother” Video

Brooklyn Vegan has debuted a new music video for Canadian artist Leif Vollebekk’s New Ways track “Blood Brother.” According to the site, it’s “one of the poppiest, most upbeat tracks on the album…that takes clear inspiration from Thin Lizzy and also The Strokes.” Director Joe Connor (Coldplay, Sam Smith, Paul Weller, Mumford & Sons, Kylie Minogue) explains, “Leif is an artist whose music takes me to a dreamlike space. I wanted to create a video that found Leif in the middle of a story, where he has come from and where he is going is unknown but the beauty in this video is that here we find an artist, handcuffed and adrift in a city in the early hours of the morning. This beautiful video presents London in the most spectacular way and sets Leif as a quiet voice amongst the rolling city.” Find the video, and some insight into the inspiration behind the tune, here.
