Yesterday, synthpop artist Twin Shadow, a.k.a. George Lewis, Jr., shared a new single "Turn Me Up," and today Lewis has shared the song's music video, directed by Alex Turvey, which you can check out below. In addition to the music video, Lewis has also announced his next album Eclipse, which is set for release on March 17 through Warner Bros. Records, Pitchfork reports.
You can check out the music video for Twin Shadow's "Turn Me Up" right here via Dazed:
Eclipse will be Twin Shadow's third studio album overall, the first since 2012's Confess.
"I think it's important to let people take what they need from songs instead of explaining too much about what they mean for me personally," Lewis said about "Turn Me Up" in the video's Youtube description. "But my friends keep asking 'Turn me up' — what's that mean? I keep saying, 'Take more from me. Ask more of me. Give me more back. Stop fighting against the things you want the most.'"
"I'm surrounded by great people right now," Lewis continues, "people who are pushing me, like my twin sister Ligia Lewis, my creative director Milan Zrnic, and Alex Turvey, who all worked with me to create the visuals for 'Turn Me Up'. Thanks for turning it up."
