Girl Ray unveil new single 'Love Is Enough'

With their highly-anticipated new album landing in the coming months, Girl Ray have now dropped the next cut to be lifted from their forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Love Is Enough' comes accompanied by a stunning new video, directed by Alex Cantouris, and follows on from the previously shared tracks 'Up', 'Everybody's Saying That' and 'Hold Tight' in previewing their third LP 'Prestige', which is out on the 4th August via Moshi Moshi.

Speaking about the new visuals, the band's Sophie said, “The concept for the video first came from wanting to look like city finance bros. The kind of people that tear through six Elfbar vapes in a day and passive aggressively tell our assistants over the phone to make sure the cappuccino was hot by the time it got to our desks next time. We got up at 3am and went to the iconic spot right by the entrance of the Blackwall tunnel to get a view of the skyline. As the shoot went on, we thought maybe we looked like budget spies or the Blues Brothers. By 6am a guy in a small vest who looked like he’d been out all night asked if we were in an orchestra.”

While the director added, “We decided to take a more earnest approach with this video, due to the song’s subject matter. Poppy found an amazing location, and riffing off the idea that the band might actually be going to work in the city, Iris came up with the great idea to wear business attire. The costume element is of course tongue in cheek, which got us thinking we could have some fun with the intro to balance out the rest of the video’s feel. We filmed at 4am, and the monochrome qualities of the light combined with the black and white suits, and Canary Wharf as the backdrop, really gelled well together to get the look of sincerity we were aiming to achieve.”
