The Japanese House Posts Heartbreaking Video For Lilo

Monday, 29 October 2018 Written by Laura Johnson

The Japanese House has unveiled a video for Lilo.

The single arrived in late September and marked Amber Bain's first new material since the release of the 'Saw You In A Dream' EP in 2017.

The track was written about her ex-girlfriend, singer-songwriter Marika Hackman, who appears in the video. It features moments of intimacy and detachment in the context of a relationship that has broken down.

In a statement to The Fader, Bain said:

“Filming this video was painful, easy, real and surreal all at once. I asked Marika to be in the video because I couldn’t think who better to be in it than the person the song is about. I’m extremely grateful that she said yes; I’m very lucky that my ex-girlfriend is also my best friend.

It was a slightly mad decision but ultimately I think we captured exactly what I wanted to, which was a true and genuine representation of the love and intimacy we share. When I watch this video myself my heart breaks, but in kind of a nice way.”

The Japanese House has a UK tour in the diary, with shows lined up in Glasgow, Newcastle, London, Bristol, Leeds, Birmingham and Manchester between November 18 and 25.
