Band of Horses officially announced their new album Mirage Rock earlier this year. That album will be out September 18. We got a quick preview of the album’s “Knock Knock” track. Now the full video for that song is out. It’s a 70’s throwback style nature documentary type video filmed in Utah. Have a watch below, read our interview with Band of Horses and enjoy a few thoughts from singer Ben Bridwell on the video:
We had some really great treatments sent to us from different directors, but this one stood out as the most interesting and fitting for our personalities. Jared really made us feel at ease, even in the planning stages before the shoot. He listened to our concerns and took extra care to make us feel like we stayed within our element, while at the same time pushing us to get good performances. It was a hell of a long day, but an exciting adventure for us in getting to see these beautiful parts of Utah and being around the great group of people that Jared hired for the shoot.
It seems fitting that we’d finally get to shoot a video around Salt Lake City, as we’ve got a song that pays tribute to the area called “The Great Salt Lake” from our first album. Better late than never.
