PUSHER & Mothica’s ‘Clear’ was one of the songs of the summer. From the hauntingly beautiful vocals to the sunshine infused synths, this track warms your soul. Today ‘Clear’ recieved a fitting visual treatment. The video has us longing for warmer pastures even if it’s only October. “My goal was to capture suburban youth through the dog days of summer. It’s rare to see youth in the media without conflict or drama. I just wanted to showcase the raw beauty of friendships and relationships without any distraction from the outside world,” says Director Mathew Dillon Cooper. It’s a fresh perspective that doesn’t say too much but rather makes you feel it. Whether it’s kicking it on the stoop, browning bagging it, or just lying around in the grass, it’ll have you longing to just bullshit around with your best friends. Speaking of lying in the grass, that’s exactly where PUSHER was when this was shot. “I was just kicking around Toronto the weekend it happened. While I was lying in the grass in Trinity bellwoods Park waiting for my partner and her mom to get their nails done (somebody had to watch the dog) Mothica called me after the first day of shooting and excited told me about all of the great shots they’d gotten ‘I was walking up a hill and a train went by as the sun was setting and there were fireworks… it was amazing’. It was funny to lie in the grass in Toronto with a dog climbing all over me while Mothica tried to explain how good the video was going to look from New York.” The takeaway from all this, sometimes you just need to lie in the grass and enjoy life, things will all work it, I mean the video did for PUSHER. Check it out below and go listen to New Laces and pretend it’s still summer.
