New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Jade Bird - the most refreshingly exciting new voice in UK pop - has shared the official music video for her brand new single "
Uh Huh" via Glassnote/Universal
Music Canada, the country's leading music company.
Already picking up multiple spins across UK radio (launching as
Annie Mac's Hottest Record) and receiving a wealth of support in all areas, 'Uh Huh' has marked a massive cornerstone of Jade Birds thrilling ascent. The accompanying video, which has been directed by Kate Moross, finds the 20-year-old pop singer-songwriter at her most commanding in an electrically-charged performance where Bird appears a fractal figure backed by powerful laser projectors that create unpredictable psychedelic patterns. It's the perfect visual accompaniment for the new single - a raw, sharp-witted and fierce power-pop anthem that sounds like it could be Dolly Parton's own version of Dua Lipa's "
New Rules".
In the time since her arrival last year with debut EP Something American, the world has opened its arms to the 20 year old pop singer-songwriter. Not only has she toured profusely across the globe playing packed-out shows in all corners, supported
First Aid Kit across North America, but she's performed her breakthrough single "
Lottery" on Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert and most recently the UK's Later…With
Jools Holland too. Along the way, she's found adoring fans and connected with captivated audiences wherever she goes.
All the while, she's been writing new music and working on her very own debut album. By self-admission, she's setting her bar high and learning from some current icons that have proved the hugely inspiring over the last few years - Alanis Morisette, Alvvays,
Christine & The Queens and HAIM to name just a few. Jade Bird is one of the most refreshing pop prospects we've seen in a long time; a prolific writer of intelligent but equally catchy songs that address themes that others are less brave too - disillusionment, divorce, cheating, sorrow - all twisted into the realities of an independent-minded, modern British female voice.
