The Paper Kites are getting back to business on the live front and will be touring right round the country mid-year on the ‘Midnight Tour’. The news has coincided with the release of the band’s latest music video, this time for “Renegade”, the third and final installation in The Paper Kites’ “Midnight” trilogy.
Like the videos for “Revelator Eyes” and “Electric Indigo”, “Renegade” documents a story taking place between the hours of 12am and 4am – a different city and different set of people on show.
This interesting way of bringing the music to life extends to the band’s upcoming tour, where The Paper Kites have constructed a way of connecting their fans to the music in a more immersive way than they’ve done before. Sam Bentley says of their new production, “We perform the music and behind us a group of apartment windows. Through the windows, a series of stories play out in the lives of different people…we provide the soundtrack to a single night, the audience watching through the dim lit windows and seeing these stories progress, eventually fading to darkness.”
Pretty cool, huh?
