The Heartbreaks Unveil 'Hand On Heart' Video - Watch Now

British indie-rockers The Heartbreaks have unveiled the brand new music video for their track ‘Hand on Heart’, a track which features on the EP of the same name.
Produced and mixed by Tristan Ivemy (Frank Turner, Holloways etc), The Heartbreaks latest offering is out February 4th and features a selection of newly recorded material with strings arranged by the legendary James Banbury of The Auteurs (U2, Depeche Mode, Bloc Party etc). The band have put together a brand new music video -filmed at The Pool in London - for the EP’s title track, which you can check out below.
The Heartbreaks frontman Matthew has explained the motive of the new release, saying: “We’ve always had a kind of intrinsic sense of drama, but with the addition of strings we were able to truly articulate a feeling of being widescreen, cinematic. Rather than merely ‘sounding big’, we wanted to make music that, like those great Scott Walker, REM and Bunnymen records, was melodic, bold, elegiac... Something conceptual that would, even if just for an EP, take our music beyond its usual guitar and bass sound”.
Having toured the UK in support of their debut album ‘Funtimes’, hit a number of summer festivals, and played a series of hysterically received shows in Japan following a #1 airplay single in ‘Delay, Delay’, the Morecambe four piece will be heading back to Japan in December for more live dates, before heading to Europe early in 2013. Stay with Stereoboard to stay up-to-date on the band’s tour plans - and check out the brand new music video below.
