Beirut Share "Perth" Video

Beirut have shared the video for “Perth,” taken from last year’s album No No No. Directed by Clara Aranovich, the split-screen video was filmed in Yosemite and Santa Monica, and sees dancer/choreographer Maceo Paisley showing off his moves on a beach and in the mountains. There’s also plenty of stunning nature scenery. Watch below.

“There’s something in the rhythm and sound of ‘Perth’ that immediately conjures images in my mind of funk-era dance; I knew I wanted to throw back to that period,” Aranovich said in a statement. “Nature is a somewhat like a church to me—a place of reverence that is deeply democratic in that it belongs to both everyone and no one. These places are as beautiful as they are a neutral canvas, as real as they are surreal.”
