Ahead of the release of their highly-anticipated fourth album, Deaf Havana have revealed the video for their new single ‘Fever’.
The track is “the darkest song lyrically” according to frontman James Veck-Gilodi. It’s a tale of periods of heavy drinking, the resulting behavioural changes and ultimately the tests they present to the relationships you hold closest. The line “I saw myself in my mother’s eyes and I found some hope,” sees the singer reflecting on a visit to his mother and a conversation that inspired change and brought balance to his lifestyle.
The accompanying music video is the third part of a story shot in Monterrey, Mexico at the end of 2016. “I always loved the idea of having several videos that were all part of a bigger story, I felt like the 3 singles, (‘Sing’, ‘Trigger’ and ‘Fever’) were perfect for this as they all shared and underlying theme of feeling alienated and out of control,” says James. “Meeting AJ and everyone at Groovy Chaos was an absolute blessing because they completely understood our vision and managed to translate that to video much better than we ever imagined. Travelling to Mexico and shooting with the guys was such an amazing experience, being so far away from home and out of our comfort zone really leant itself to the lyrical content of the songs and they ended up being the best music videos we have ever been a part of.”
The new album ‘All These Countless Nights’ is released on 27th January and is available for pre-order now here.
