The video documents one of the illegal car meet ups that happen on Sunday nights around London. It captures a beautiful melting-pot of people who are here to have a good time and who proudly display their cars. As day tunes into night, the setting of this suburban industrial carpark grows into a surreal world of neon lights and rain. Like in a dream, smoky burnouts and drifting donuts take place one after the other and all night long, set to the pulsating music of Jon Cooper (Turtle) and ethereal vocals of Eliza Shaddad.
With his debut album ‘Yesterday’s Gone’ nominated for tonight prestigious Mercury prize, Loyle Carner releases the new video for ‘Sun of Jean’ with Joao Retorta back at the helm.
A nostalgic, honest and delicate depiction of unconditional love between mothers and their sons, exquisitely executed by Joao.
Everything crossed for tonight, a worthy winner we reckon.
