New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Madison Beer releases the melancholically whimsical video for her newest single "
Reckless" today. The visual follows the release of the track earlier this month, which was Madison's highest week debut ever on Spotify with over 4 million streams.
In the video, directed by Madison and
Amber Park, Madison navigates the confusion of a lover's betrayal inside a surreal story book world. The twisted fairytale is a melancholic but beautiful journey, with Madison emerging from the turmoil in the end as if awoken from a dream.
"I drew a lot of inspiration from classic children's book themes for this video," explains Madison. "I wanted the world for 'Reckless' to feel both disorienting and familiar, like a nightmare where nothing is what it seems and there's no way out. Those are exactly the emotions I've gone through in relationships that have turned sour. When someone you've given all your trust to betrays you, you feel like everything you've ever known was a lie."
The release of the "
Reckless" video follows the announcement of Madison's highly anticipated Life Support Tour (encompassing US and Canadian dates in 2021 and UK and European dates in 2022). For a complete list of tour dates and ticket information, visit https://madisonbeer.com/live
