London-based three-piece The High Wire consists of Tim Crompton, Ross Forrest, and Alexia Hagen. On June 11th they premiered their awesome new track 'LNOE' through Pigeons and Planes ahead of it's official single release date of 29th July 2013.
To coincide with the single release, the track now comes with an official video. Directed by Mat Whitecross (Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll, The Road To Guantanamo, Spike Island) the video stars the fabulous Ray Winstone and is set against the backdrop of Whitecross' striking film noir Ashes (2013).
The video centres on Ray Winstone's character Frank, who is suffering from Alzheimers and coping with surroundings which are constantly changing and blurred.
The video highlights Frank struggling with unsteady and confusing memories/visions of his wife (played by Lesley Manville) and in turn we are unsure of what's more emotionally startling; the intensity of the track itself or the storyline and wonderful visuals of the video - making them a perfect match.
