Posted by Continuing our celebration of emerging creatives on the VERO platform, we are excited to present the first view of Thunder Jackson’s new video.
Today, LA-based Thunder Jackson heralds his upcoming single, ‘Led Astray’ with a vibrant and effervescent neon pink video premiering now on VERO.
‘Led Astray’ follows last month’s release of ‘Find Yourself’ taken from forthcoming album due in October.
Thunder says: “Led Astray is about a path that once sparkled and shined. A path you thought was the right one but now the path leading you into destruction: leading you to places that are taking you further from the self you’ve worked so hard to discover. You pray, you call home, but nobody seems to pick up. Nothing seems to point towards the sun you once saw.”
The video finds Thunder weaving round a crowd of bystanders in a neon pink dancehall. Pete Lawrie Winfield, Thunder’s key creative collaborator (and video director) says of the clip:
“Before we ever even made music together, my first impression of Thunder was that he preferred to live in a kind of comic book of his own making. That strange, pink neon world he has going on between the ears, is not somewhere I’d like to live neccesarily, but when we are dreaming up songs and videos together, it’s an amazing place to visit. The beauty of Mr Jackson is that he is fearless when it comes to the desire to express himself through performance. I don’t know many 6ft3 200lb Oklahomans that love to wear glitter and dance in golden shoes, whilst circling a floating neon cube.”
VERO – the social network that directly connects artists to fans because it’s ad-free – is home to all things Thunder Jackson. From exclusive tracks and performances to late-night musings and DJ sets (Thunder loves to dance!). Join the party here.
