Junip touring w/ Acrylics, released digital EP w/ remix by Dale Earnhardt Jr Jr (who have upcoming dates too)

Junip

“We’ve released a new digital-only EP. It features “In Every Direction” and remixes by Dale Earnhardt JR JR and White Sea (Morgan Kibby of M83), as well as three brand new, unreleased B-sides; “Näckrosdammen”, “Pling”, and “White Rain”.

The video for “In Every Direction” was directed by our drummer Elias Araya. Elias found inspiration for the video in his father’s art, the painter and sculptor, Kent Karlsson.Elias presents images in a simple, iconic way using different backgrounds refracted through a diamond. A few of his father’s porcelain dog collection also made the video.” – Junip
