"Summer Somewhere" is the latest offering from LIES – the duo composed of cousins Mike Kinsella and Nate Kinsella. Their new single features a lush orchestral overture that dissolves into a pulsating beat that wavers in between the wistful lyricism. Alongside the new song, a music video directed by Nate and filmed by Chris Strong depicts a separated family navigating a dark woods in the middle of the night.
“‘Summer Somewhere’ is about longing for fulfillment and the sense that there's always something better further afield than home,” shares Nate Kinsella. “The video consists of a man and a woman, distanced from each other but connected by a rope, with their kids left to navigate between them in the dark.” Watch below.
Earlier this year, LIES announced the new project with the two-track release of "Echoes" & "Blemishes". This September they will perform live for the first time at Pygmalion festival in Urbana, IL.
