Te Whanganui-a-Tara indie-pop band Rocket Berry have released a new music video for their synth-pop single Caught Up in the Fiction.
The new impressively self-produced video gives great 90's camcorder energy and on-screen karaoke-style lyrics that decrease in accuracy as the song progresses. “I think everyone can relate to the feeling of self-deception that comes from having an idea of a person that doesn’t really exist,” says lead singer Clara van Wel. “We wanted the video to have a nostalgic feel that reflects that fantasy.”
To celebrate the release Rocket Berry have a Wellington show on TONIGHT Wednesday May 24 at Valhalla, with support from Rose Lubransky and Florence Kitteridge. For tickets and more information head along to Under The Radar HERE
Rocket Berry is Clara van Wel (vocals), Connor Scott (keyboards), Peter Wilkes (bass) and Baileigh Sparkes (drums). Their single Caught Up in the Fiction was released in mid-April and is an 80's-influenced synth-pop stand-out! It was recorded in Connor’s bedroom studio, then mixed and mastered by Wellington electroacoustic composer and audio engineer Jack Woodbury.
It’s Rocket Berry’s third single, following on from Chill Out and Walls (Gotta Get Out), which were both independently released not long after the band formed in 2022 and have had over 15K streams. An exciting up-and-coming band, Rocket Berry bridges the gap between folk-rock and synth-pop to create a groove with an edge. Definitely a band to watch, their ultimate goal is to entertain, get people moving and inspire them to own themselves!
