Chilled-out Montreal indie-pop team TOPS have released a string of videos since last year's Picture You Staring, and now the Arbutus Records outfit are promoting the album with one last clip. This one is for "Sleeptalker."
The visuals that accompany this smoothly soporific ballad are characteristic of the grainy, analogue-style aesthetic that TOPS have used many times before. We see retro-style footage of the band practicing, hanging out, and goofing around with a little instrument swapping, with the whole thing looking like it could have been filmed 50 years ago.
Scroll past the band's tour schedule to check it out.
