In the music video, literally you made history by being the first musician shooting at TWA Hotel at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. How did that come together?
We are fans of that new futuristic architectural piece from the 60’s by designed Eero Saarinen.
The video was delayed but when we eventually got to film it was the exact time of the reopening of the legendary building, we knew that everything supposed to happen in the right time.
Can you tell me a bit about the song?
I wrote “Aeroplane” while traveling on an Aeroplane to Rio, as soon as I landed I fell in love with the Portuguese language of the stewardess. I recorded it which later was used on the song at the studio with Malcolm McCarthy(Bubba). The beat came from “Eskista” – a bird dance with a beat of 6 on 8. I wanted to show what happens when I put my headphones on and walk on the street. I start to lose gravity and fly. Music has the power to connect us between borders and can take you anywhere. I’m carried by random people along the USA. They become a part of of the creation. The reference scene is Juliette Binoche in Bad Blood, where she is flying on the runway and takeoffs like an aircraft.
Do you have any tour dates approaching? Where can we come and see you play?
I’m planning a tour soon so keep an eye on my instagram for announcements!
