Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Celeste Premieres New Music Video for “I Can See The Change”
Last month, British singer-songwriter Celeste collaborated with Billie Eilish's brother FINNEAS for her latest song “I Can See The Change”.
“The song was originally something quite personal to me in terms of what it was about, but it’s taken on a new life with the reinvigoration of the Black Lives Matter movement,” Celeste says. “It’s taken on a new meaning even for me.”
On June 18th, she premiered a music video for the song. The video was shot in her living room during quarantine and directed by Sophie Jones via Zoom. The black-and-white clip is '60s TV vibe like Josephine Baker.
She told Vogue, “My housemate Holly and I did everything in our living room. We had everything delivered to the front door and set up all these drapes to black out the entire apartment. We started at two in the afternoon and finished shooting around 2 a.m. Sophie Jones directed it on Zoom the whole time and we had a DOP [director of photography] who worked remotely and explained all the camera settings to Holly and how to adjust the lighting. She was pretty much everything rolled into one over this 12-hour shoot.”
She is currently working on her debut album at Abbey Road Studios in London and is expected to release in early September 2020. She would like the album to be one that people will "enjoy and listen to for a while– until at least 2022."- source : Vogue
