Sylvan Esso - ‘Coffee'
Climb the stairs, find the door, cross the hall, pay your entry fee. Take to the polished wooden floor. It’s a dance; we know the moves.
Sylvan Esso’s stunning new music video takes us from a community hall to a somewhat sleazy house party to a softly-lit lawn at night in an uplifting ode to the freeing power of two feet moving in time. A simple beat and sparse instrumentation guide Amelia Meath’s lilting vocals gently through the maze of the clip’s goings-on, and the result is at once soothing and invigorating.
The track is the first single from Sylvan Esso’s self-titled debut album, due for release on May 13. If the rest of them are like this one, it’ll be well worth a listen.
Get up, get down. It’ll do you good.
