The song, "Last Birthday" speaks of unconditional support for those you love and care about all the way to the end. I wanted to play with the notion of "What would it feel like to have one final celebration? Who would show up to your last birthday? and How would that celebration feel?"
It's a message about supporting one another, and Valley as a band is that chosen family for each other. The band wanted the video to have a 1970's feel and I was automatically on board. I really love the colours and fashion of the seventies and I love throwing parties so it all felt right.
It felt important to make this video, as I miss the feeling of celebration and bringing people together. I worked with local filmmaker "boy wonder" to be our 16mm film expert. To shoot this all on 16mm film gave it a timeless nostalgia. I hope that when people watch this they are reminded of the joy of celebration and coming together.
