The video – which can be seen below – was shot on location at Athens’ stunning 2,000-year-old Odeon of Herodes Atticus, in front of an audience invited via the band’s social media. It was directed by Ben Mor, who previously helmed the band’s video for Hymn For The Weekend with Beyoncé.
The video stars actress, writer and storyteller, Natasha Ofili (Principal Karen Vaughn in Ryan Murphy’s Netflix series, The Politician) who was also responsible for the video’s story and creative direction.
