MAGIC HANDS, Tone – Music Video

Lucy Roleff, the fantastic solo singer/illustrator extraordinaire that you may remember from our interview a wee while ago, is back, now operating with a pal as electro duo, MAGIC HANDS.

The sway-worthy number, Tone, will delight fans of quirk glitch wonder, Rainbow Chan, Guerre and the like. It’s dreamy and shows off the duo’s pretty dual vocals, nicely complimented by some bleeping synth action.

The video for Tone is surreal and picturesque. The pair shot it on a Mediterranean island during a recent tour in Europe. The end result is a breathtaking portrayal of what would have been a sweaty affair… hot Mediterranean heat, wandering cliffs and sand dunes while wearing polyester shirts? Nightmareish, but worth it.

Melbournites can check out Magic Hands in the flesh when they officially release Tone – the single and the video – at the Grace Darling Hotel in Collingwood on April 11th.
