Premiere
Hoops get blissful in their new ‘Cool 2’ video
The beachcombers’ new clip comes ahead of an appearance at this weekend’s Mirrors Festival.
With their sun-kissed ‘Cool 2’ single, Fat Possum-signed dreamy pop bunch Hoops proved they had the chops for an instant slam dunk. Today, that track gets a suitably shimmering accompanying clip.
Frolicking about in vintage shops and performing in front of a kitsch-as-you-like glittery backdrop, it perfectly captures Hoops’ classic, stripped down dream-pop aesthetic.
Hoops play London’s Old Blue Last this evening, before heading back to the big smoke for a slot at Hackney’s tip-top musical knees-up Mirrors Festival. Full remaining dates for their European run are below - dive into the calm waters of ‘Cool 2’ while you’re at it too.
