Waterparks have released a video for their latest single TELL ME WHY, featuring Mark Hoppus, Danny Elfman, Eric Nally, and Dillon Francis. The track features on their recently released album JINX.
“The TELL ME WHY video is detrimental to the song,” explains frontman Awsten Knight. “Without it, there would be no features. I will explain. The song itself is a borderline miracle, but most people didn’t understand what they were listening to at all until they came back, I explained myself, and they’d listen again and their heads would explode. Everyone told me it was such a masterpiece, but that they were just confused by the story when it was only my voice singing all the parts, and that a visual component would help. So I spent $400 on puppets and shot this “music video” in my apartment with my sister and her boyfriend on an iPhone. We did this just to try and secure the guest vocal features, with no real intention of it ever seeing the light of day. However, everyone who has seen the video loves it, and the label is adamant that we put it out. So I hope you enjoy. Hopefully it makes you want to sing on our song like it did for everybody else involved. Thank you so much. Someone please show this to Donald Glover. Thank you!”
JINX is out now via BMG, available to stream or purchase HERE.
