With over two and a half million streams (and counting) of current single ‘This Head I Hold’ over on YouTube, Electric Guest today reveal a brand new music video for the track.
Filmed on location in a small town in the Kostroma region of Russia, the video shows the town’s dancers giving a unique performance to the track, which was actually discovered by one of the teenagers in the troupe who had somehow found the track online and downloaded it despite the slow dial-up internet in their village.
Produced by Danger Mouse, ‘This Hand I Hold’ is released on May 27 via Warner Bros.
