Video of the Moment #1855: Du Blonde
Beth Jeans Houghton’s alter-ego Du Blonde has a new promo video today, for a song off her album ‘Welcome Back to Milk’. Self-directed, ‘Hunter’ was conceived and done in Los Angeles and in a purposefully lo-fi fashion, as Du Blonde herself explains:
The footage was shot on Super 8 by Kelsey McNamee. We wanted to try and get footage like the old home movies our families had when we were younger. So often footage like this is forsaken for videos shot on phones and the quality of those old memories is lost. We wanted to have something to show our kids.
The vibe of Houghton’s vocals is a dreamy one and personally, it blows anything LDR puts out (ha, didn’t intend for that!) out of the water. Watch the promo for ‘Hunter’ below. (And yes, Houghton’s chomping on a burger in this video. As one does as Du Blonde.)
