SUNDOWN share music video for new single 'Chimneys'

Following the release of their atmospheric new single 'Chimneys' last week, SUNDOWN have shared the accompanying music video.

The video, filmed by Rory McMahon, features stunning footage of Dublin in lockdown, opening with a snippet from Leo Varadkar's St Patrick's Day national address.

"We wanted to capture a moment in time like no other and create something we could look back on fondly in years to come," singer Fionn Boland says of the video. "We also just wanted to spread a bit of good news as there’s been so much negativity in the media recently."

The single sees the Dublin quartet exploring a rich new sound – developed in close collaboration with James Smith (formerly of Gypsies on the Autobahn).

“Upon listening to the 'Chimneys' demo, it was the same feeling I got when I heard their timeless first release ‘Deal With The Devil’," James reveals. "I knew I wanted to be involved in it in some way, shape, or form.”

As well as selling out a headline show in Whelan’s last year, SUNDOWN have toured Ireland with gigs from Belfast to Cork – making their festival debut at Independence and supporting acclaimed artists like Sion Hill & Larkins. The band have already amassed over 125,000 collective streams on Spotify and have built up an ever-growing fanbase on YouTube and Instagram – thanks to the massive success of their weekly Quarantine Sessions.

Although a notable change in tempo for the band, 'Chimneys' marks SUNDOWN as one of the most compelling new forces in Irish music.
