After revealing his hauntingly beautiful single Gave It All Away to the world earlier this year, today Wellingtonian singer-songwriter Louis Baker gives us the official music video, and announces two New Zealand show dates this May.

Godsiff, produced by Cushla Aston and shot at QT Museum Wellington)
As the video unfolds, we
are taken right back to the song's origins - to the night the song came to
life in a hotel room on the other side of the world. "I remember feeling the
exhaustion starting to set in, after being on the road by myself in the UK for
quite some time," Louis reminisces. “The video depicts what actually
happened, although the room wasn’t as nice. I got back to my motel room after a
show and wrote the song in 15 minutes, it came pouring out of me because I
meant every word."
"The song is about
not giving up on your dreams. It's about never giving in. It's about the
resolve and determination one must have in order to make these dreams become
reality.”
Louis is set to play two powerful shows next month - one at Auckland's
slick downtown venue REC, and one at Wellington's legendary San Fran, backed
by full band (Johnny Lawrence - bass / Cory Champion - drums / Dan Hayles -
keys).
