Jehnny Beth has unveiled the stunning new video for latest single ‘French Countryside’, showcasing a raw and vulnerable side to the singer-songwriter. The song is taken from last year’s “To Love Is To Live” , which made it onto our Best Albums of 2020 list. Filmed at director and long-time partner Johnny Hostile’s studio in France, the direct imagery blends intensely well with Beth’s intimate and electrifying performance. Beth says of the track: “it’s a promise song, I wrote the verses on a plane as I was convinced it was going to crash. I was making promises to myself about what I was going to do differently if I survived.”
The track was co-written with The xx’s Romy Madley-Croft, and featured on last year’s solo debut To Love Is To Live, the album was lauded it as “a cathartic listen filled with trembling courage”.
