Australian band Twerps is back with a brand new music video for “Love at First Sight,” a track from their latest release Range Anxiety. The video was shot, edited and directed by Twerps’ own Julia McFarlane, and features singer Martin Frawley on a blank wall with a series of changing projections overlaying his body.

Frawley sings the lyrics as he lethargically glides around, playing with the wall projections. The music video fits the song perfectly thanks to the lo-fi production and intentionally hazy vocal delivery, meshing well with the repetitive chorus. Frawley teeters on the edge of being purposefully off-key with background vocals echoing his wistful approach. The song is the second-to-last track on Range Anxiety, which was released by Merge Records in January..

Australia bands in the spotlight today as we look at Melbourne based pop-quartet Twerps. This classic indie-pop created their first self-titled album 3 years ago. Moving ahead to the Summer of 2014, Twerps have been consistent with the soothing sounds and bittersweet melodies as they released a well-received 8 track EP “Underlay” which has been described as “songs fraught with universal, emotionally familiar sentiments”. But this was no excuse for a break, the band have quickly followed up with their second album “Range Anxiety” which was released in the UK last month. Catch Twerps this years Great Escape Festival in Brighton 14th-16th May 2015

Twerps

Twerps create cheeky, charming and touchingly direct music, that has seen them championed by BBC6 Music’s Marc Riley and taken on tour by Belle & Sebastian, Real Estate and Mac DeMarco. The bustling, fun and nostalgic animated video to Twerp’s newest single “Stranger” features a play-doh man seeking companionship which was directed by the band’s bass player, Angus Lord.
