Ahead of releasing new album Bobby Joe Hope next month, Jon McKiel has shared a video for first song "Object Permanence."

The Andrea Thorne-directed clip flits between the real and surreal, including clips of McKiel himself and movements from a few mysterious, masked video stars. You can watch it below.

Of the visuals, a statement offers, "Magic recombines ordinary objects to wake us; acknowledge mystery. Pluck from the landscape a rose or a bruise. World forms and unforms in universe around us — a moment comes and then dissolves. Tides and life; on the shore let us embrace beneath Moon and tremble a little as lovers and kin while we tumble through time in the wandering place."

Bobby Joe Hope arrives April 24 via You've Changed Records. McKiel's tour plans have been put on hold as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
