Hot
on the heels of her successful support debut for
The Naked And Famous’ iHeart
radio gig, and songwriting collaborations with Auckland chillmasters Leisure
and producer extraordinare Sam McCarthy, Madeline North aka
So Below continues
one hell of a busy January 2017 with the hotly anticipated debut of her music
video for the latest single,
Hard.
Working under many hats with artists such as Purity Ring, Hozier, Tame Impala,
Olly Murs and BANKS to name just a few, Los Angeles based director Susie
Francis directs the brand new video which is shot in the great outdoors.
Revealing just enough but never too much, the video plays with the themes of
darkness and light, underpinning So Below’s combination of goth to pop
songwriting styles. Says North of the video, “The song has a really cool pace
to it and feels quite isolating, so I wanted that feeling to be reflected in
the video. I also liked the idea of carrying on the nature theme from the
previous video, 'Far', and just developing on that. I'm super happy with how it
came out!"
With local radio support from Hauraki and George FM, Hard has been growing
momentum in New Zealand and overseas with the track receiving support from
Spotify Canada, Spotify USA, and music sites and blogs across the world.
Capitalizing on this growing following across the globe, North next hits the UK
in February to embark on a 6 date tour - the first time So Below will deliver
her live show to an international audience.
