Watch: Arthur Beatrice – Midland

Arthur Beatrice‘s ’Midland’, with its pure, candid lyrics and delicate 80s guitar shimmers, would undoubtedly need a video of equal purity to accompany it. And that is exactly what director Rita Lino has created. As a woman gazes at you and a breeze blows across her face, there’s a sense that the words Ella Girardot sings are the musical equivalent of her thoughts. Just make sure you watch it right to the end – as soon as you get comfortable with her just standing there, she has a little surprise up her sleeve.
