The fourth record from Melbourne's Jen Cloher is due for release early next year, almost four years since the release if LP number three Hidden Hands, but from what we've heard thus far it is well and truly going to be worth the wait.

This afternoon we premiere the film clip for Cloher's excellent new song Mount Beauty and we think you'll agree that it's a pretty stunning video, fitting for a corker of a tune.

The video sees Cloher on stage, on a road trip, running through the woods and swimming in a creek; there's an overall sense of escape, self-discovery and acceptance that runs through the clip as far as we're concerned, but we'll let you make up your own mind on that.
