Braids share new video for “Joni”
Last week, the Montreal trio Braids released an appendix to their lauded 2015 LP ‘Deep In The Iris,’ a 19 minute EP ‘Companion.’
Today, they share a video directed by Maria Ines Manchego for the track “Joni” via Dazed. The visual piece explores the end of a relationship, with a couple striving to reclaim their individuality while remaining close together.
On ‘Companion’ Braids use the ‘Deep In The Iris’ palette to paint decidedly different vistas – joy, disaffection, thunderous explosion to delicate introspection, the minimalistic power of “Companion” to the patient blossoming of “Sweet World”.
