Fontaines D.C. unleash latest video single for ‘The Couple Across The Way’ featuring lead Grian Chatten baring his soul and skin in a barely there shirt tank.
Off their newest release, Skinty Fia. Directed by Polocho. Grian spills his life-long dream of appearing in a music video, strumming an accordion on a window sill.
“I was living in a tiny little flat in North London with my girlfriend and there was this Hitchcock-esque view of an elderly couple across from us.” Chatten says of the track in a statement. “They had these blazing arguments that sent pigeons flying around, and after each one the man in the couple would come out onto this little balcony he had and just breathe for about 10 minutes. I couldn’t help but imagine it as a reflection of myself and my girlfriend in years to come, and ourselves as a reflection of a younger, happier version of them.”
Adorably hunky-hairy dory as ever. Press play right below.
