In September, Perfume Genius’ Mike Hadreas released his excellent third studio album, Too Bright. In promoting the LP, the singer-songwriter also proved himself to be quite the auteur of music videos, as evidenced by the stunning visuals for “Grid” and “Queen”, the latter of which ended up in our Top 5 of 2014. Today, he returns with another exciting clip for “Fool”.
Here, director Charlotte Rutherford juxtaposes meditative footage of Hadreas rollerblading with scenes of bizarre and unsettling dancers dressed in creepy bird costumes. Watch it below (via Urban Outfitters).
Hadreas has also announced a brief North American tour with Norwegian singer Jenny Hval in support. Consult his full schedule below.
