The second video to fall from within the folds of Dominant Legs' LP 'Invitation', 'Make Time For The Boy' is the San Franciscan quintet's answer to a pop-ballad. Nostalgically dreamy and surreal and smothered in vintage sensibilities, Ryan Lynch and Hannah Hunt relay an incredible tale of lost love and the consequent determination to rediscover it. I'll admit that the perhaps overly-sentimental and dewy-eyed chorus was dripping in too much sugar for my liking, but the awe-inspiring saxophone work in the second half easily makes up for it! I was captivated by everyone involved, but Raina Mieloch's performance as our protagonist was exceptional at worst, her beauty highlighted by shy smiles and mesmerising eyes. An extrordiary journey plays out before yours however, from bedroom to landing to a strange party downstairs. The band-members dance a surreal dance, absent-mindedly following a pre-planned routine, often absent smile but never absent warmth. Well-filmed by Jonathan Yi, watch the video for 'Make Time For The Boy' above and discover their wondrous world!

NEWS// Dominant Legs: Hoop of Love Video
Video here from Dominant Legs, a San Franciscan quintet who have just dropped 'Hoop of Love', the first single from their upcoming album, 'Invitations', which will be released September 27th. From the busy city to the wide open field and lake, there is a tangible sense of freedom that's evoked here. A catchy melody and nostalgic air don't go amiss either mind. I'll definitely try to grab a copy of the afore-mentioned lp for review if I can...
