Staffordshire-born singer-songwriter Alex Jayne has shared a new single called ‘Pictures’. Check it out below, alongside an accompanying Laurie Barraclough-directed video.
“’Pictures’ is about breaking free from my own attachment to photographs from the past. And how easy it is to be seduced by nostalgia – to ignore the truth behind a rose-tinted lens,” Jayne explained in a statement.
Speaking about the inspiration behind the video, Barraclough added: “For a song about a relationship that exists only in photographs, shooting the video on celluloid film was a no brainer. Super8 naturally has a very nostalgic feel – as well as a real home movie vibe – qualities that line up perfectly with the themes and lyrics of the song.”
Earlier this year, Alex Jayne shared the singles ’90s Dream’, ‘Backseat’, and ‘Clouds’.
