Aujourd'hui, Pixies<\/strong> – Black Francis<\/strong>, Joey Santiago<\/strong>, David Lovering<\/strong>, et Paz Lenchantin<\/strong> – unveil a brand new music video for the song “Long Rider” from the band’s new album\u00a0Beneath The Eyrie<\/em>\u00a0(BMG\/Infectious). \u00a0Presented in a surreal, dream-like fashion, the video takes its cue from the tragic death of Desiree, an ardent surfer and close friend of Lenchantin’s whose final wave claimed her life a couple of years ago. \u00a0Said Lenchantin, “It was almost as if Desiree had this dream before she went surfing that morning, and hints at that even if she had known her fate, she would still have taken that wave.”<\/em> \u00a0 You can check out the “Long Rider” video\u00a0ICI<\/a>.<\/p>\n The video’s narrative was conceived by Lenchantin and pulls from the song’s lyrics which she co-wrote with Pixies’ Black Francis. \u00a0Directed by Gilbert Trejo and filmed in Southern California at Will Rogers State Beach, the clip features pro-surfer Danica Elbertse, a good pal of\u00a0Lenchantin’s. \u00a0Lenchantin, a long-time fan of the 1960’s surf films, especially those by the ’60s and ‘7’s celebrated filmmaker George Greenough, shot the video on 16mm film with the water sequences filmed on a Super 8 camera explicitly made for underwater filming. \u00a0\u00a0“Long Rider” is Paz’s second Pixies music video, having directed the clip for “Classic Masher” from the band’s 2016 album\u00a0Head Carrier. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Pixies have just wrapped up a\u00a0<\/strong>completely sold-out,\u00a0<\/strong>33-date European tour, Leg One of the band’s 2019-2020 global tour, and will head back out again in December for a limited, seven-date North American run. \u00a0Kristin Hersh will support on those dates. \u00a0Pixies will then kick off 2020 with Leg Two of a 14-date tour of Japan, China, New Zealand and Australia. \u00a0 All dates are below, and subsequent shows for 2020 will be announced\u00a0shortly. \u00a0Beneath The Eyrie<\/u><\/em>\u00a0is available now\u00a0ICI<\/a>.<\/p>\n DECEMBER<\/strong><\/p>\n 2 \u00a0 The Troubadour, Los Angeles, CA<\/p>\n 3 \u00a0 The Troubadour, Los Angeles, CA<\/p>\n 5 \u00a0 August Hall, San Francisco, CA<\/p>\n 9 \u00a0 Webster Hall, New York, NY<\/p>\n 10 \u00a0College Street Music Hall, New Haven, CT<\/p>\n 11 \u00a0Boston Big Night Live, Boston, MA<\/p>\n 12 \u00a0Phoenix Concert Theatre, Toronto, ONT \u00a0Canada<\/p>\n <\/p>\n FEBRUARY 2020<\/strong><\/p>\n 24 \u00a0Yokohama Bay Hall, Yokohama, Japan<\/p>\n 25 \u00a0Ex Theater Roppongi, Tokyo, Japan<\/p>\n 26 \u00a0Big Cat, Osaka, Japan<\/p>\n 29 \u00a0Modern Sky Lab SH, Shanghai, China<\/p>\n <\/p>\n MARCH 2020<\/strong><\/p>\n 1 \u00a0 Tango Live House, Beijing, China<\/p>\n 3 \u00a0 Rotunda 2, KITEC, Kowloon, China<\/p>\n 6 \u00a0 Spark Arena, Auckland, New Zealand<\/p>\n 8 \u00a0 Golden Plains Festival 2020, Meredith, VIC, Australia<\/p>\n 9 \u00a0 Palais Theatre, St. Kilda, VIC, Australia<\/p>\n 12 \u00a0Fortitude Music Hall, Brisbane, QLD, Australia<\/p>\n 13 \u00a0Fortitude Music Hall, Brisbane, QLD, Australia<\/p>\n 14 \u00a0Forecourt, Sydney Opera House, Sydney, NSW, Australia<\/p>\n 15 \u00a0Forecourt, Sydney Opera House, Sydney, NSW, Australia<\/p>\n 17 \u00a0Fremantle Arts Centre, Fremantle, WA, Australia<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
