Sylvan Esso shared the video for new single “Frequency.” The track will appear on the synth-pop duo’s upcoming album, Free Love, which arrives on September 25 via Loma Vista Recordings.
Sylvan Esso’s Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn tapped Moses Sumney to direct the video. The visual also features choreography from North Carolina-based Stewart/Owen Dance.
Sylvan Esso spoke about the experience of filming the video in a statement. Read it below:
We had a fantastic and rewarding time collaborating with our friend and fellow North Carolinian, Moses Sumney, on building a visual world for Frequency. He had such a beautiful vision for the project, one that ran parallel to the song’s initial source in a way that showed us new spaces it could inhabit. It’s a beautiful exploration of being together and apart at the same time – we feel it rings clearly in this moment.
Watch the video for “Frequency” below:
