The vid for recent single ‘Lifeline‘ was shot entirely in singer Linzi Clark’s bedroom.
“As we were limited with locations due to lockdown, (bandmate) Andrew (Quinn) came over to my flat,” she recounts, “and we filmed it all in my bedroom using some lights, a green screen and some frames and we started to shoot a mix of performance, dance and still shots and then we edited it all together and were pretty happy with how it turned out! It was nice to have full control over it from start to finish!”
