Ruby The RabbitFoot Invites Us To A Clubhouse Fit For A Pop Princess
Premiering right here
Athens, Georgia-based artist
is here to provide a bit of mysticism with the music video for “NicoLa La,” the latest single off of her forthcoming
Divorce Party
LP, which we're premiering right here.
Directed by Hana Haley, the video starts with Ruby opening the door to a charming clubhouse, complete with a picnic and a talent show. She paints a canvas of the idealistic summer that so many of us have dreamt of in our girlhood. This carefree world proves to be finite, though, as Ruby sings of inviting a lover into her world, even if that means they are bound to hurt her.
"I wanted to play around with themes of girlishness and playfulness—two things that are always present in a summer camp," said Haley. "All the camp scenes represent the real us—silly, rampant, explorative goofballs. The talent show scene, in a sense, represents how glamorous and fabulous we see ourselves in our own heads. We girls have many layers. "
The looped vocals and synths evoke the ecstatic feeling that comes with finding a new love, while the visuals illustrate the haven that is left behind as we become adults.
Divorce Party
is due out on
August 12
