Cate Le Bon "Daylight Matters"

Welsh musician/producer Cate Le Bon has shared her new video for “Daylight Matters,” the first single off her forthcoming release, Reward, out May 24th on Mexican Summer. The clip directed by acclaimed film maker and multimedia artist Casey Raymond (John Grant, DJ Shadow) against the solitude of the Welsh coastline, utilizes saturated hues of reds and pinks to accentuate the sense of expanse. As described by Le Bon, the video represents “playful solitary despair in an alien landscape of sinking sand and towers in the sea. Searching or running away? A little bit of both, maybe.”

Reward’s ten songs were conceived alone at a piano, which remains evident by the feeling of closeness that they convey. Although eventually recorded across America and the UK. collaborators on the album include Stella Mozgawa of Warpaint, H.Hawkline and Samur Khouja as co-producer.
