Lepers & Crooks Release Must Watch Video Ahead of EP Tour
It’s been an impressive start to the year for Lepers & Crooks! The Sydney 5-piece have just finished recording their EP ‘The Heathen Circus’, released a new single, and are set to tour our sunbaked land in May and June.
Their latest single Let You Go channels the classic Aussie rock vibe. It’s got it all, from catchy backing vocals, swearing, whimsical lyrics, rockin’ riffs, and a wah-wah solo! The accompanying music video, directed by Danielle Payne, is a confusing wild run through dark streets.
The video follows a cross-dressed lead vocalist Sam Baker in a perceived prostitution deal in dark streets late at night. The video cuts back to Baker and drummer Damien Jones, who seem to be a couple, arguing and downing VB tinnies. Baker then runs away after taking the money from a man (you can figure out the context).
As Baker runs he passes a road worker dropping the bundle of money on the sidewalk and jumps over a homeless man . The video ends as the homeless man is hit by car with the road worker helping him by giving him the lost bundle of money. Baker and the other band members are left tossing hands up after realising they lost the money.
The band will begin the ‘Let You Go’ East Coast tour from early May at the Oxford Art Factory in Sydney and ending in late June in Canberra.
