Low’s "Lies" Video Tells the Story of a Day Laborer

Last month, Low released their latest album, Ones and Sixes. Today, they’ve shared a video for “Lies”. Directed by Manuel Aragon, the clip tells the story of Diego, a day laborer who struggles to balance the turmoil of his work with a romantic relationship. Watch it below.

Here’s what Aragon had to say about the video in a press release:

Diego is a jornalero – a day laborer, struggling to maintain his livelihood. Daily, he navigates between two very different realities: one, the worker, very much on the outskirts of society, unseen, unnoticed; the other, a Mexican-American 20-something, one half of a mixed-race couple trying to sustain their relationship and manage their cultural differences.

Low have also announced more tour dates in support of the album. Find a full itinerary below.
