PREMIERE: Shining Bird - Rivermouth

More Shining Bird Shining Bird

Following the huge success indie rockers Shining Bird experienced with their new single Rivermouth, the band have today dropped the music video for the track to coincide with the announcement of an east coast tour next month.

Directed by surf cinematographer Dave Fox who is also the mastermind behind the group's previous videos, Distant Dreaming and Hot Summer Days, the new clip follows the story of a man who attempts to ski on live snakes. Yes, you read that right. 

We don't want to give away the ending but you need to watch this to the very end. Seriously. 

Meanwhile Shining Bird will kick off their tour on 7 November at Melbourne's Shadow Electric, followed by headline performances at Sydney's Union Hotel on 20 November and Heritage Hotel in Wollongong on 26 November, as well hitting the stage at Berry's own Fairgrounds Festival on 5 December. 

A number of local acts have also been confirmed for each show; Ali Barter and Cool Sounds will serve as the support acts for the Melbourne show, Bearhug and Wild Honey will open in Sydney and Flowertruck and more will perform in Wollongong.
