Indie band Smoke Season released their breathtaking video for Loose, which serves as the first chapter to their short film, Ouroboros, and is the first single off their upcoming EP of the same title, out in 2016.
Packed with stunning cinematography, an all-star cast and a heartbreaking tale of the reality of teenage LGBT love, Loose marks Smoke Season's most ambitious and rewarding project yet. Ouroboros' plot spans across the narratives of four radically different characters (each with their own dedicated music video), whose seemingly disparate lives intertwine to demonstrate the interconnectedness of humanity.
Musically, Loose displays ethereal instrumentation, powerful beats and fierce vocals that set it apart as a powerfully unique, but equally catchy indie rock anthem. The song continues Smoke Season's unique "electro-Americana" combination of both folk and electronic influences. Loose was produced by Kyle Draper and Dave Burris of Mateo Sound and mixed by Chris Mullings (The Neighbourhood, LP, Weird Al Yankovic).
The remaining three videos will be released in 2016 to continue the story. Separately, a combined short film edit spanning 20 minutes in length will begin screening at a number of international film festivals in 2016. The band will be releasing the songs from the Ouroboros EP digitally, physically and on vinyl.
