Releasing their haunting coming-of-age single, "Mother & Father" in earlier June, New Zealand siblings Georgia and Caleb Nott - also known as Broods - have now offered up the hypnotizing music video. It's a clip that is as spellbinding as the song itself. Shot in black and white, the visual shows flash close-ups of the angelic-faced duo as well as Georgia frivolously dancing to the song's profound melody.
New Zealand may be churning out a lot of pop stars this year (like Lorde!), but Broods has remained relatively low-key and musically different after releasing their self titled EP this past December. The Kiwi duo blissed us out with "Bridges" toward the end of 2013, followed it up with "Never Gonna Change" back in March, and now the brother-sister duo are keeping it in the family with newie familial track, "Mother & Father," the first taste of what's to come from their upcoming full length debut album, "Evergreen," out on August 22nd.
Nothing short of an emotional triumph, the melancholy new track speaks to the importance of family, which is understandable given the brother-sister bind that makes the Broods what it is. It's darkly menacing, but we still love our parents. On "Mother & Father," Broods sounds more comfortable and polished than ever. And it's a percussive, pulsing, electronic one, and a logical next step for the band. This tune will steal your heart with the stunning percussion and sentimental lyrics. This is truly the song to tug on those heart strings and send your mind careening into the warm sunset.
"Mother & Father" truly makes you want to hug singer Georgia. Prepare for a serious case of The Feels because it's strewn lyrically with the What Ifs we all combat in life. A low cry, synth-based beat trails along, creating perfect unison that is reminiscent of the brother-sister bond that created this band. Brother to Georgia and all round gun at musical instruments, Caleb makes sure "Mother & Father" is a robust ode to the synth. Broods keep things simple for their new "Mother & Father" video, but it fits perfectly with the dreamy, nostalgic quality of the single. Check out the video below, and prepare to be mesmerized.
